Sainsbury’s unveils fresh £200m investment in staff pay
Supermarket giant Sainsbury’s has today announced a further £200m investment in staff pay, bringing hourly wages across the UK to £12 an hour and £13.15 in London.
Starting from March 2024, Sainsbury’s said it would become the country’s largest supermarket to pay the new Real Living Wage and that the £200m was its biggest-ever investment in colleague pay, upping the wages of 120,000 staff.
Sainsbury’s said that for staff outside London it represents a nearly £2,000-a-year pay rise, rising to almost £2,300 a year for staff in the capital.
