Tesco announced some fairly massive losses this time last year but then all our big supermarkets are presently suffering since Aldi and Lidl expanded and became more popular.
I think Tesco have done the wise thing and decided to pull their socks up and get their house in order. http://www.londonstockexchange.com/e...915823500.html

Thousands of Tesco workers to lose hundreds of pounds of wages
Thousands of Tesco workers will lose hundreds of pounds in wages due to sweeping changes to their contracts. Details of a new pay deal – leaked to the Sunday Mirror – reveal huge swathes of the 310,000-strong workforce will have overtime, weekend and night shift rates slashed. The move comes as supermarket chiefs *introduce new contracts this week. Workers criticised the retail giant’s bosses and claimed they were putting profits above the welfare of staff. On an internet forum – named Very Little Helps after Tesco’s Every Little Helps slogan – one user wrote: “Loyalty and commitment means nothing to Tesco any more, we are all just a number sold down the river.” Tesco, Britain’s biggest supermarket, has been locked in talks with the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers about the new deal. It means staff working Sundays and Bank Holidays will have double time pay slashed to time-and-a-half. Read more: Tesco calls time on 24-hour trading at 70 stores Pay packet boosts to those working between 10pm and 6am will now only receive extra cash between midnight and 6am. And overtime previously paid at time-and-a-half or double time will now be at the normal single rate. A source said: “You would assume *overtime premiums would affect the vast majority of Tesco staff. "How many would be affected by premium cuts is up for speculation.” Managers were briefed last week but an official announcement is due on Tuesday. A Tesco spokesman said: “We have reached a positive agreement on a two-year pay and *benefits package for store colleagues, which is one of the most competitive in the *supermarket industry and is good news for the large majority. “We will announce details once we have spoken to colleagues about the changes. “Any colleagues out of pocket will be given advance notice and earnings will be protected for up to two years.” The cuts come just months after claims taxpayers were forking out Ł11billion a year to top up the wages of 5.2 million low-paid workers – including *supermarket staff – in the form of tax credits and other benefits. Last week a watchdog ruled Tesco breached an industry code by intentionally delaying payments to suppliers to “improve its own financial position”. http://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/news/...cid=spartanntp |

They can all shut down for me. I now shop at Aldi. I used to shop at Tesco's but not anymore. There prices are in many cases twice as much for the exact same product. Now with less overtime their staff will be even more miserable to the shoppers than they already are. They seriously need to up their game and treat their customers with respect.
