In addition to these pay enhancements, Tesco is also fortifying its support for employee well-being and familial responsibilities. For instance, the supermarket chain is extending paternity leave to an industry-leading six weeks at full pay and broadening the maximum sick pay entitlement to 18 weeks for eligible employees. Furthermore, the company has bolstered family leave policies, providing 26 weeks of fully-paid maternity, adoption and kinship leave. Since April 2023, Tesco has introduced various employee benefits, such as a virtual GP service and the right to request flexible working from day one of employment. Furthermore, its workforce enjoys additional perks such as a Colleague Clubcard discount of up to 15 per cent, complimentary food in in-store canteens, and access to a pay advance scheme.
