UK: Co-op staff 8.5% pay rise
Usdaw said the proposal will be put to a ballot, with the result announced on 22 April. The deal includes proposals to simplify reward practices, improve consistency and better align the Co-op to market practices among major food retailers.
Usdaw national officer John Gorle said: “This represents a good step forward for staff and we are recommending that they vote for the deal. The pay increase applies to food stores shop assistants and their supervisors and is worth at least £1,200 per year extra for a full-time employee.”
