No. Most people don’t get paid breaks at Sainsbury’s.
Supermarkets who pay breaks include Aldi, Southern Co-op and Co-op Food.

great team colleagues and managers, plenty of work to be done when working
severely under staffed, customers can be rude, unpaid breaks, hard to change shifts

The money and the discount. Most members of staff are lovey
Some customers can be rude.
We don’t get paid breaks

Putting items through, sick is paid
Only one person on a checkout at times (mostly me), breaks aren't paid, only allowed one time of sick a year

Unpaid breaks yet we are told we cant leave the store and you will still have tannoys or staff/managers cornering to ask about work things on break
Not enough staff on each department so you will have to do the work of at least 3 people if not more and since theres not enough managers too you will also be handed parts of managers job with no training or extra pay.
New staff are no longer trained it's more a quick run down and off you go and of anything goes wrong multiple people will complain at you.
Don't expect any recognition if you are flexible with shifts and do overtime its usually the staff that are not flexible and maybe only do overtime once a year that recieve the recognition or a thank you for it.
Mental health is not considered an illness so you cannot have time off or sickness for a day off to recharge.

The customers are the best
Management and sick policy are bad. As is the change in paid breaks.
