Amazon unveils pay rise for tens of thousands of UK staff

Amazon warehouse workers

A new pay rise will lift minimum rates for staff by nearly 10% and follows on from Amazon’s victory over an attempt by warehouse workers to unionise.

The pureplay giant said the increase would lift minimum pay rates by 9.8% to between £13.50 and £14.50 an hour, depending on location. Staff with at least three years’ worth of service will receive a minimum of between £13.75 and £14.50 an hour.
