UK: Tesco warehouse workers to vote on industrial action after rejecting pay offer

"Tesco workers to ballot before Christmas on Usdaw strikes", 17 November 2021

A pay dispute at Tesco distribution warehouses...could lead to union members taking industrial action around the busy Christmas and New Year period.

Distribution workers who are members of the Usdaw trade union have rejected a pay offer from Tesco and will soon vote on industrial action...

A spokesperson for Usdaw (the Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers) confirmed the union had "given notice to Tesco that distribution members are to be balloted on industrial action after they rejected the company’s pay offer"...

...Usdaw would not comment on the exact details of the Tesco pay offer its members had rejected.

However, the Argus understands the supermarket chain had offered workers in Magor a four per cent rise, equivalent to an extra 50p per hour...

"We are disappointed that a decision has been taken to ballot for potential industrial action at a number of our distribution sites," the Tesco spokesperson said.

"We have put forward a fair and competitive pay offer to our colleagues, which is one of the highest awards made within our distribution business in the last 25 years."
