Do You Want To Work for Tesco?

Tesco has made big claims about the new jobs its store might bring to St Albans (although the British Retail Planning Forum found that every time a large supermarket opens on average 276 jobs are lost!)

However, the quality of jobs is also under question. Scottish drivers working for Tesco are holding a 'strike summit' because they 'don't want to accept new terms and conditions they say the company is forcing on them' according to the Scotsman today.

UPDATE: The workers now have the support of a number of MPs - see this Scotsman article
