Staff are furious after the firm announced a shake-up billed as ensuring it has more staff on the shop floor during the day. Meanwhile, many staff work nights because it fits in with other commitments and cannot switch to a day shift. Yet as staff face a pay cut to keep their job, the boss of B&Q owner Kingfisher raked in nearly £1.6million last year. B&Q was slammed in 2016 for scrapping a wave of perks, including summer and winter bonuses and double time on Sundays. “We are supporting impacted colleagues in a number of ways to help them to understand what the proposals mean for them personally.”A spokesperson said night workers who did not move to days would be offered redundancy.
