Asda has ordered its more than 5,000 head office staff back to the office for a minimum of three days per week
The grocery retailer has enforced a new three-day a week office rule for its more than 5,000 head office staff members through an internal email across its three offices in Leeds and Leicester.
Asda chairman and interim chief executive Lord Rose has said that three-day office attendance will be compulsory from January 2025.
Just two months ago, Tesco upped its in-office days for corporate staff from two to three per week in an aim to build “high-performing teams with a collaborative culture”.
The supermarket‘s part-time workers will also be expected to work from the office for an equivalent number of days.
As an Asda spokesperson said its updated approach brings it “in line with our competitors and the wider market”, we take a look into which UK supermarkets offer hybrid working for head office staff.
