A union has begun a High Court fight with Tesco after complaining that workers at distribution centres are at risk of losing money as a result of a “fire and rehire” process.
Usdaw says Tesco is acting “unconscionably” by trying to “unilaterally remove” workers’ entitlement to retained pay.
Lawyers representing the union told a judge on Wednesday that Tesco was proposing to issue notices of termination and offer re-engagement on new terms which did not include retained pay.
Union bosses want Mrs Justice Ellenbogen to “restrain” Tesco.
Lawyers representing Tesco are disputing Usdaw’s claim.
They say Tesco is using a “contractual mechanism” open to employers.

Project Fear 2 and Europe for Scotland
With less than a week to go to voting at Holyrood the media has been awash with nostalgia as all platforms and mediums beamed out Project Fear 2. Nicola Sturgeon was hounded from studio to studio and a sort of feeding frenzy emerged as papers and programmes tried to out-bid each other in the war against a referendum: “Nicola Sturgeon struggles to answer key questions about Scottish independence” tried the Telegraph, “Independence would result in a hard border” said The Scotsman, “Nicola Sturgeon dealt ‘hammer blow’ as RBS warns it will move to London under independence” cried the Daily Express … and on and on. The Herald focused on the fact that the FM didn’t claim she’d remove Trident immediately and banks and companies lined up to say they’d leave if people voted to govern themselves.
