Poundstretcher announced that it would give a 10% pay rise to nearly 4,000 employees, effective from April 1.

The pay rise will cover 70% of the retailer’s workforce including customer-facing staff and employees with more than one year’s service. The retailer has yet to respond to what the pay rise will mean for its staff’s hourly pay rate.
