Corporate and Social Responsibility

People and society

Across the business we encourage colleagues to participate in activities to support national and local schemes and initiatives.

Employees are entitled to three Giving Something Back days, allowing staff to contribute to causes they believe strongly in without having to take annual leave.

Giving something back - Our stories

Julie Shepherd, Senior Brand Manager, volunteered at her local Tesco store to support the Watford Food Bank. One in five people across the UK are living below the poverty line, and rely on Food Banks in emergencies. Food Banks regularly take donations of food items, including tea, sugar, tinned goods and cereals.

Julie said:

"This was the first time I’d used a ‘Giving Something Back Day’ and I’m so pleased I did. It was incredibly rewarding helping my local community, and meeting the team of volunteers who regularly give up their time to help run the Food Bank. I was overwhelmed by the generosity of shoppers – many of whom said they had been in a similar, difficult situation and so understood how important Food Banks are."

Environment, waste and sustainability

To ensure that sustainability is fully embedded within our operations and governance structure we have developed a Workplace and Corporate Social Responsibility Risk Policy which is currently being reviewed as part of our ESG (Environmental and Social Governance) Strategy. Details of our ESG Strategy, which builds on the foundations of our CSR Strategy, will be set out in our 2024/2025 Annual Report and Accounts.
