Tesco set to cut 10,000 jobs in bid to halt slide

Britain’s biggest supermarket Tesco could cut up to 10,000 jobs as part of its attempts to halt a slide in profits, The Sunday Telegraph has reported.

The newspaper said up to 6,000 positions would be cut from Tesco’s head offices and the stores it has said it plans to close.

The rest would come from an overhaul in the way it runs its stores, including eliminating managerial roles.
