Supermarket giant Tesco has announced a major change to its pay for hundreds of thousands of employees.
Tesco has said that its hourly pay for shop staff and warehouse workers will be increased by 5.8% from £9.55 to £10.10. The retailer, which is the UK’s largest private employer, said the pay increase will come into force from July 24.
It added that the new rate of pay is part of a £200 million investment by the company into its workers, which will also include an extension of the colleague discount allowance and new training.
