Aldi to give thousands of workers a pay rise next working with staff getting up to £11.15 an hour

THOUSANDS of Aldi workers will see their wages boosted from February 1 as the discounter has revealed a number of pay rises for staff.

The supermarket is upping wages shop workers, although what you'll get depends on where your store is based and how many years you've been working for the company - and not everyone will get an increase.

Aldi says "thousands" of staff will benefit from the pay hike.

Here's what you'll get:

  • Shop workers outside of London's M25 who've been with the company for less than three years will see their hourly pay rise by 30p (3 per cent) from £9.10 to £9.40.
  • Shop workers in stores outside the M25 who've been with the company for three or more years will see wages remain at £10.41 an hour.
  • Shop workers in a London branch who've been with the company for less than two years will see their take home pay increase by 35p an hour (3 per cent) from £10.55 an hour to £10.90 an hour.
  • Shop workers who've been in a London store for more than two years will see their hourly rate rise by 26p (2 per cent) from £10.89 to £11.15.
  • Management and head office staff are on different pay rates but Aldi says they too will get a pay rise as part of this process.

Staff are paid for breaks taken during their shift.

Aldi's hourly pay is higher than the government's national living and minimum wages, which vary from £3.90 an hour for apprentices to £8.21 an hour for workers aged 25 and over.
