Major high street retailers are facing pressure from shareholder activists to pay all workers the minimum earnings necessary to meet the cost of living.

ShareAction, which campaigns for responsible investment, said it plans to attend the annual general meetings (AGMs) of Marks & Spencer, JD Sports and Sainsbury’s this week to challenge the company boards on low wages

The campaign group will warn the three firms about how poor pay can cause reputational and long-term risks.

The Government’s legal living wage is currently £11.44 an hour as of April, but the Living Wage Foundation calculates the “real Living Wage” as £12 an hour nationally and £13.15 in London, which employers can voluntarily pay staff.

Marks & Spencer will face questions at their shareholder meeting on Tuesday about why it has not yet committed to paying its third-party contracted staff, such as cleaners and security guards, the real Living Wage despite profits of 480 million dollars (£380 million) in the last year.


ShareAction is also calling for the supermarket to commit to paying all of its staff the higher wage on an ongoing basis.

Later in the week, the activists will also challenge the boards of JD Sports and Sainsbury’s to pay the real Living Wage to all staff, during their AGMs on Thursday.

They will also urge Sainsbury’s, which recorded a profit of £277 million in the last financial year, to ensure its third-party contracted staff who keep stores clean and safe are paid the real Living Wage.

It comes as Simon Roberts, the supermarket’s chief executive, is set to receive nearly £5 million in pay this year, which is 212 times the amount its average employee will earn, according to the High Pay Centre.

The BBC has an article of Marks repair service which is a good move.

This isn't in-house but I suppose MKS will get a percentage of the repair cost or some other fees for the tie up.
