Tesco has become the second supermarket chain in as many weeks to announce another pay rise for its staff.
It will increase pay for store workers by 7% to a minimum of £11.02 per hour in its third increase over the past 10 months. It comes as Asda announced its hourly-paid store workers would receive a 10% pay increase last week, with rates rising from £11 an hour in April and £11.11 from July.
