HI guys! Has anyone heard what WR are planning to do with all there Engineers when the Tesco contract goes?
No, and it'll be last minute judging by what happened with Sainsbury's. Tupe springs to mind. Are you one of the WR Massive?
I Know..........They are to be rounded up at dawn , have ther sword arms chopped off , and made to work ( As Slaves ) at the Tin Mines of Thracia....or is that Spacia..........!
what is a Tesco?
A money grabbing slave driving mother of all mothers that pays my morgage!
Only because you allow them to. Maybe time for another industrial revolution.
burn our leak detectors! Up the workers!
A Tesco is a quaint term in the UK for a small corner shop :D :D
Actualy Tescos are a supermarket chain that own 2/3
of the UK and suposidly control all the prices for what
farmers get paid for their products. They turn over
millions of £££'s proffit a year..
taz.
.
How can we be tuped if WR are still trading?
What if the new contractor has enough Engineers and take it on alone!
Cheers i'll look into it:D
i think you will find you have to spend around 75% of your total working time over the last year working on the contract to be a valid TUPE
as WR dont have designated engineers i guess they will only transfer if the new contractor requires / wants them.
i do remember WR manager once saying to me that " designated engineers dont work." hmmm:eek:
Giz a job somebody!!!
Far North!:D
Where is this advert?
left hand to this page on the advert list, trs advert
Dont think they have much work up this far, cheers anyway
im certain whoever won tesco contract will require engineers even way up north ...........
mind you i bet they have loads of guys all over already .... well after so long waiting to see where the industry was heading at long last cheepest isnt always the best is it 1200 or 1300 PFS 6 tesco regions large chunk of icelands and counting
seriously not a good day ..........
like they say though chaps the stores still need engineers so hold tight
it might be worth pointing out that the contract has not gone WR still retain 662 stores covering a massive region!
Does anyone know when the contract ends
wr has got from london up to yorkshire east! and the contract ends on april the 12th.
is it true wr will be having designated tesco engineers this time........... didnt you say somewhere before tesco were demanding it?
hardly the wr way is it?????
wr is running the tesco contract as a separate entity away from its other buisiness, they are going with a shift system, just like every other contractor, this is because tesco are demanding this, in my opinion this is there means to scoop up the labour to cover there contract by themselfs.
they have got all the contractors to sort out dedicated engineers on shifts, then give the companies **** money to look after the stores and put in place kpi's which are impossible to keep to, which in turn will force these companies to run at a loss, then tesco will scoop up the labour and run them through ems.
surely if tesco wanted there own engineers theyd just advertise for 300 engineers nationwide on 45k and buy all parts same as beens n milk i.e ridiculously cheep ..... god dont tempt them lol hope not matey
hows the pfs contracts gettin replaced? bet they were rubbish anyway no big loss i dont think
It's time all the larger companies capable of taking on this contract (and lets face it that is only a handfull) Refused to tender under Tesco terms and dictated to Tesco reasonable terms and kpi's. If they all stuck to their guns for once instead of cutting each other's throats the whole industry would benifit. How many companies have gone because of Sainsbury's???
Unfortunately there are laws that prevent companies from getting together and doing this.
They would all have to independently arrive at the same decision at the same time without being in contact with each other.
It isn't going to happen.
Check out the recent case about price fixing within the building industry.
your right spencer! a lovely ideal but never going to happen with some companies juggling huge amounts of turnover........
how does it go lose one must get another... at whats the cost.......????
i do wonder what would happen if the big men were all gentlemen so to speak
Tesco have already got engineers under the ems flag but not paying anywhere near £42000. More like £30000 on a shift system. As usual Tesco pay less, alot less, than the rest so they can keep their profits up. After all its only about profits.
if tesco paying 30K it;ll be to pretend non skilled refrigeration engineers,costing tesco more in the long run..bye bye profits in this sector anyway.
Just like the so called ems air con engineers They go on a 2 week training course, become total experts and get payed 25k!!!
I have heard wr will be paying £43k four days on 12 hour shifts, no body is coming forward with the truth though
Yep your not far out at that- theres a little a bit of bonus on that figure
