childcare or religious holidays.

every 12 months. We provide the support and direction for you to meet your
goals.
You will also receive structured training and development that involves both
in-store training on the shop floor and attending workshops.

service) and an award winning pension scheme.
To thank our people for the success they’ve bought the business, we award free
shares to everyone who has worked here for one year at the end of the financial
year (February). After five years these Tesco shares can be sold tax free. We also
operate a Save As
You Earn and Buy As You Earn share options scheme that all
staff are able to join after one year of service.
