Pay changes part of plans to mitigate supply chain crisis as company prepares to be auctioned off amid profit slump
Morrisons is cutting sick pay for unvaccinated workers who need to self-isolate, as the UK’s fourth largest supermarket tries to pare back the “biblical costs” of the pandemic after a slump in profits.
David Potts, the chief executive of the Bradford-based group, said the pay changes were among a number of strategies Morrisons was using to mitigate cost rises from shortages of HGV drivers, supply chain disruption, and the growing wholesale prices of commodities, including beef and wheat-based products such as bread.
