The British Sainsbury’s is preparing for serious downsizing
British grocery chain Sainsbury’s is making major cuts in the UK, cutting around 1,500 jobs.
The planned cuts will affect sales of general merchandise and clothing, while the company would focus on automation, with plans to save £1 billion over three years.
The decision affects Sainsbury’s head offices, contact centers and general merchandise networks, with a major impact on affected employees. The move may also affect many Hungarian workers working abroad, many of whom work in the British retail sector, such as Sainsbury’s supermarkets.
However, the company hopes to be able to transfer many of the affected employees to other positions. The decision is part of Sainsbury’s “Next Level Sainsbury’s” strategy, which aims to improve value, quality and service for customers.
