'12,000' Asda staff currently face sack in bitter contract dispute
Asda has staff who are refusing to sign the new deal serving 12-week notice periods - but they can still change their minds.
Approximately 12,000 Asda workers are currently facing the sack next month for refusing to sign controversial new contracts, a source has told Sky News.
It is understood all staff who fail to sign the agreement by a 2 November deadline will be dismissed unless the supermarket chain backs down.
Workers who have snubbed the contract are currently serving notice periods but can yet change their minds.
Asda said on Wednesday that the "vast majority" of over 100,000 people affected by the new contract had signed on the dotted line.
The retailer was yet to respond to Sky News' request for a comment about the scale of the crisis.
