No one wants the shop to shut in the lead up to Xmas...
...it would be good for the public to both appreciate the stoicism of the staff...
...remind the management of their obligations towards health and safety and keep the pressure on re facilities.
A very thoughtful post, roz.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
It was definitely colder in there yesterday than it was outside!
If that be the case, then they might be able to turn the refrigeration units off.
Saving money from:
1. Electricity costs.
2. Possible reduction in compensation claims for frostbite! (From both staff working in the aisle and brave customers that decide to stay in there for very long.)
Once this starts to hit their daily P&L, from customers either staying away or doing a reduced shopping visit, then we will see some swift action from Sainsbury's HQ.
One good thing that may come from a lack of sales is that the reduced section will start to overflow until they adjust their stock ordering. Until then, bargain hunters rejoice! I am putting on my thermals as I type and nipping down to Sainos to check out any reductions.
Thank you again roz. Your focus on the health of Sainsbury's staff is very admirable.
