https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-56185236 CEO Roger Burnley [Asda said that the restructuring could also see 1,100 store management roles being given a new grocery delivery focus. The chain's chief executive, Roger Burnley, said: "The pandemic has accelerated change across the retail sector especially the shift towards grocery home shopping and our priority is to serve customers in the way they want to shop with us. "The last 12 months have shown us that businesses have to be prepared to adapt quickly to change and I am incredibly proud of the way we demonstrated our agility and resilience through the pandemic. "We know that these proposed changes will be unsettling for colleagues and our priority is to support them during this consultation process. "Our plans to transform the business will result in more roles being created than those we propose to remove and our absolute aim is to ensure as many colleagues as possible stay with us, as well as creating the opportunity to welcome new people to our business."] |

Didn't they restructure very recently and all staff had to sign new contracts?

Likely stemming from sheer greed from ASDA.

It's honestly gross and it's happening at a lot of major retailers when they were all open during the pandemic and likely had sky high profits because of it.

I don't mean this disrespectfully but when I used to work for asda the 'back of shop' staff were a little irrelevant anyway.
I'll always remember 2 had called in sick and my manager asked me to help her and it took us just over an hour to replenish the tills and put the notes into a digital counter and then just sign everything off and put it in a safe. Yet the two women who were off had 6 hour shifts and the third lady also did a 6 hour shift so they were paying 3 women 17 hours wages to do a job three of us did in just an hour. Just doesn't make sense.

Fire and rehire on lower contracts....Covid has been a great excuse for companies to do this...it was just a matter of time before other companies followed the trend.
Shame on them. |
