They say they pay an hourly rate of £10- £11.50 per hour (depending on which shift is worked) and staff are temperature checked and given PPE. There are also free refreshments and onsite subsidised food.

Europa Warehouse logistics director Maria Torrent-March said the online shopping boom as a result of the second national lockdown ahead of Christmas has resulted in a vast increase across Europa’s e-commerce client base.

She said: “It’s been a really challenging time for many people this year so we’re hoping this attractive pay and conditions will attract people that need a Christmas boost.

“It’s been an unprecedented time for us, we have had a huge increase in demand that we could never have predicted, so we’re offering these high rates of pay and bonuses to attract new members to the team to join us to ensure we get Christmas delivered for our customers.”
