Sophie Clarke was published today in The Grocer, a magazine leading coverage of the supermarket and consumables sector.
Sophie writes that many leading supermarkets have promised to pay their in-store workers more to reflect the additional responsibilities they have assumed and risks they are taking to serve customers amidst the outbreak of Covid-19. She notes, however, that the increase Tesco have awarded only brings the pay of in-store workers roughly into line with what its warehouse workers normally receive and asks if those workers who are putting their health and safety at increased risk are indeed being paid fairly.
