Coronavirus: Lidl to recruit 2,500 workers to keep up with demand from shoppers
Reading now: 790
Lidl has said it will recruit 2,500 workers on four-week contracts to help keep up with high demand in stores as customers continue clearing shelves over the coronavirus outbreak.
The grocer said recruits can start immediately and will be paid at least £9.30 an hour, adding "the new hires will be responsible for working together to keep the store clean, tidy and the shelves well stocked so that customers can get the products they need".
Lidl's move follows similar hiring sprees announced by Co-op and Aldi, as supermarkets struggle to keep up with demand and shoppers clear shelves.
Other stores are re-deploying staff from less busy departments to help out, with Waitrose and Marks & Spencer both transferring people to their food departments
