A good reminder to avoid scab tills, they put people out of work, but my god this is so brazen and insulting.
Sainsbury’s workers are forced to live with a daily reminder that many of their jobs are soon to be replaced by self-scan check out machines. Astonishingly the sign above, stuck on the wall in Sainsbury’s, Lewisham, suggests they are now even given targets to work towards their own unemployment.
The tragedy is that in a world run for people, self-scan tills could be a great invention. Anything that makes the process of food distribution more efficient would simply mean the workers in that sector could take a well deserved rest. But in a world run for private profit, it means greedy supermarket bosses use new technology as a way to lay off workers and save cash. They don’t spend that cash on giving the remaining workers a pay rise of course. They don’t even spend it on cutting the price of food – have you noticed prices falling since self-checkouts were introduced?
