Tesco will move 190 jobs to Bangalore

The Economic Times reports that the UK’s largest retailer, Tesco announced that it will be transferring 190 finance processing jobs from its office in Cardiff to Bangalore in the next 12 to 18 months. The move is being done to improve the organization and maximize the excellence of service provided. Those who will be affected by the jobs will get a chance to take up jobs elsewhere in the company or receive compensation if they preferred to leave.
A Tesco spokesman said, "Businesses change and we are constantly looking at
ways of improving the organisation. There are some types of jobs which are
appropriate to be taken to our excellent service centre in India. "There are
also some jobs that customers have told us they would like to see remain in the
UK. We have two excellent call centres in Cardiff and in Dundee."
