The deal, which was negotiated by trade union Usdaw, covers more than 95% of Lincolnshire Co-op’s 2,800-strong team, including its agents. All roles will receive a minimum of £12.36 per hour, with every colleague covered by the agreements getting at least a 77p per hour uplift.
The pay bump will be paid in the May pay run and will be backdated to 1 April 2025. It means that Lincolnshire Co-op, which has 13 branches, continues to pay all colleagues at least 15p per hour above the National Living Wage. This includes apprentices or those aged under 21 who can legally be paid a different rate.
