'Our top priority' | Tesco staff given app to boost safety during their journey to work

Tesco is giving all 300,000 of its UK employees access to a personal safety app that can track their journey to work and help them to raise the alarm if they don’t feel safe.

The supermarket giant, which is the UK’s largest private sector employer, will give every worker free access to an app called Peoplesafe, following feedback from colleagues who said they sometimes felt unsafe travelling to and from work.
