National Living Wage

Only cashiers and cleaners are directly impacted by NLW. They comprise 17% of total shop staff, but due to shorter hours, only 5% of salary shop costs 2% ASR and statutory obligation on NLW and NMW Projection if pay gap between Assistant Managers and Cleaners & Cashiers is maintained

ASR = Annual salary review NLW = National living wage NMW = National minimum wage

Shop staff pay grades are well distributed and therefore sufficient headroom exists between grades Estimated incremental costs of c£2.0m p.a. by FY18

Financial impact is negligible in FY16 and only c£2.0m by FY18, (less than 1% of operating costs)

FY15 H2 FY16 H1 FY16 H2 FY17 H1 FY17 H2 FY18 H1 FY18 H2 Shop Manager Deputy Manager Assistant Manager Cleaners & Cashiers NLW NMW FY15 H2 FY16 H1 FY16 H2 FY17 H1 FY17 H2 FY18 H1 FY18 H2 Shop Manager Deputy Manager Assistant Manager Cleaners & Cashiers NLW NMW

With no other adjustments, Cleaners and Cashiers would catch Assistant Managers at the end of FY18

An increase of 2% per annum and maintaining the pay gap resolves the bumping effect
