Morrisons orders head office staff to work full time

Morrisons has ordered staff working in its head office back to their desks five days a week as the supermarket battles to revive its fortunes. The supermarket is understood to have told its employees based at its headquarters in Bradford that they must work a full five-day week after abandoning a policy which allowed staff to work compressed hours. Previously, staff were required to work 37.5 hours over four and a half days under a flexible working week pilot which the supermarket kicked off in 2020. The decision to revert back to five day weeks, which came into force this month, comes as bosses step up a drive to reinvigorate the supermarket as it loses customers to rivals including Aldi. Rami Baitiéh, who took over as Morrisons chief executive in late 2023, has been spearheading a turnaround effort. Last week, the supermarket said sales grew 4.2pc to £3.9bn in the 13 weeks to April 27, versus a year earlier. Mr Baitiéh said the figures showed it had 'bounced back strongly' after cyber issues in November. However, data from Kantar showed Morrisons' share of the grocery market dipped to 8.4pc in May compared to 8.6pc a year earlier. The head office changes are expected to help Morrisons cope with mounting competition from rivals as they step up a price war. Both Asda and Tesco have said they are expecting profits to take a hit this year as they invest heavily on price cuts. A spokesman for Morrisons said the head office changes would improve customer service and make sure its shelves are better stocked in stores. They added: 'In the context of a relentlessly competitive UK grocery market and widespread increased cost pressures, we have taken the difficult decision to ask our head office colleagues to move their working pattern from 4.5 days to a full five day week.' Staff will still be allowed to work both from home and the office during the week, and individuals may be able to work flexibly if they need to do so. It marks the latest shake-up of Morrisons' office working policy. In 2020, the supermarket introduced a four-day working week for head office workers, saying the change would 'make Morrisons a place where more people will want to join and stay'. Under the scheme, head office workers were asked to work on Saturdays once every four weeks. However, last year, Morrisons said it was changing its requirements following complaints from staff over having to work over the weekend. As part of the update, head office staff switched to a four and a half day week and were not asked to work any Saturdays. Morrisons' rivals have also scaled back flexible working policies since the pandemic. Last year, Asda scrapped its pilot after managers said a 44-hour week over four days trial left them exhausted. Domestic & General, a household appliance specialist employing 3,000 people, said it had received similar feedback from staff following a test of a four-day week. However, a four-day working week policy has received support from some in the Government, with Deputy Prime Minister, Angela Rayner, previously saying: 'If you can deliver within a four-day working week, then why not?' The Government later said this would not be part of its policy plans. Meanwhile, last year, the UK's first medical trial of a four-day working week suggested that there could be benefits to compressing hours. In the study, conducted by the University of Sussex, the policy was found to make employees happier and healthier. However, the company involved in the trial, Thrive, opted against adopting a four-day week full-time after its business suffered. The study found that the policy created some problems 'at a business level, particularly when it came to providing customer service'.

Last chance for Morrisons shoppers to bag £30 worth of free products ahead of deadline TODAY

Here's how to claim your free items SHOP TO IT Last chance for Morrisons shoppers to bag £30 worth of free products ahead of deadline TODAY Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MORRISONS shoppers have just hours left to snap up free kitchenware worth up to £30 – or risk losing it for good. The supermarket's popular More Card Stamps promotion ends today, Sunday, June 22, across all participating stores in the UK. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 The scheme has been a hit with loyal shoppers since launching earlier this year, offering one stamp per £10 spent Credit: Alamy The offer allows customers to collect digital stamps when spending over £10 in-store, which can then be exchanged for premium Pyrex items. However, shoppers must redeem their stamps by the end of the day or they'll vanish – even if they've already qualified for them. Available only in Morrisons supermarkets, the promotion is not valid for online orders, Click & Collect, Morrisons Daily stores, petrol stations, Amazon, or Gibraltar branches. The free gifts up for grabs include a variety of Pyrex kitchen staples – such as round and rectangular dishes in multiple sizes, and even a branded hand pump. The scheme has been a hit with loyal shoppers since launching earlier this year, offering one stamp per £10 spent. Lilly Chattoe, Senior Loyalty Marketing Manager at Morrisons, said: 'Our More Card Stamps loyalty program has been incredibly popular, with fans of the Pyrex range being quick to collect their stamps in exchange for a product or two, or more. "As we reach the final week of the offer, we're reminding customers that haven't yet redeemed their stamps to do so quickly before it runs out.' To take part, shoppers must be signed up to the More Card scheme, either via the app or using a physical card. Stamps can be viewed through the app or printed on receipts. Morrisons recently revamped its loyalty scheme to focus more on personalised offers, digital tracking, and limited-time rewards, making it easier for shoppers to get value from their weekly shop. However, it also means shoppers must keep an eye on expiry dates and promotional cut-offs. Loyalty schemes across the UK retail sector have been shifting in recent months. Tesco shoppers were forced to switch to the new Grocery & Clubcard app earlier this year, or risk losing points. Meanwhile, Sainsbury's moved away from its popular Nectar Double Up event, and Boots cut back on its Advantage Card points – all leaving customers feeling short-changed. Many shoppers have called for clearer communication and more reminders from retailers when loyalty scheme deadlines are approaching. Missed deadlines can mean lost rewards, no matter how many points or stamps have been earned. To avoid missing out, Morrisons customers should check their app or receipts today and head to their nearest participating store before closing time to redeem any remaining stamps.

'This is awful' say shoppers as Iceland closes supermarket store today

Iceland is closing its Margate, Kent, store today and will also shut up shop in Inverness, Scotland, on July 12 Iceland is closing one of its stores today - with another branch set to follow shortly after. The frozen food supermarket is closing its Margate, Kent, store. Meanwhile, Iceland will also shut up shop in Inverness, Scotland, on July 12. The grocer has said affected staff will be offered alternative roles within the company where possible. ‌ Shoppers have reacted to the news on social media. One said: 'Wow they been there as long as I can remember they one of the original shops in that area such a shame.' ‌ Another commented: 'This is awful all the elderly people that use this and Morrisons to do the weekly shops will now suffer once again.' A third said: 'Such a shame I remember when it opened.' Iceland, which has over 900 stores across the UK, has not confirmed the reason behind the closures. The supermarket has closed a handful of stores over the last few months, including its Welling branch in London. Its shops in Shenley Road, Borehamwood and Alphington Road Retail Park in Exeter have also been shut down. But it isn't all bad news. The retailer has also opened new stores. Last month, Iceland opened a new city centre supermarket in Derby and another shop at Victoria Chambers on London Road Earlier this year, the company announced plans to open 20 Iceland and Food Warehouse stores, and the supermarket has also opened a new 500,000 square foot £100million distribution centre in Warrington. ‌ The Omega Park Site in Warrington - which opened in partnership with GXO in February - supplies around 350 Iceland stores across the north west of England, the Scottish borders and Wales. It comes after Poundland confirmed 68 stores will close as part of a major restructure. The budget chain will also seek rent reductions at a number of other locations. On top of this, Poundland will also look to close its distribution centre at Darton, South Yorkshire and its national distribution centre at Bilston in the West Midlands in early 2026. Poundland will also stop selling frozen food, and its website will stop taking orders, although shoppers will still be able to browse products and deals online. The restructuring plan, which would put more than 1,000 jobs at risk, would need to be approved by the High Court before it can go ahead. Poundland, which is owned by Pepco Group, currently has 792 stores and employs around 16,000 people. It expects its total store number to eventually be reduced to between 650 to 700, meaning further closures could be announced in the future as leases expire.
