The Warehouse move to pay staff a "career retailer wage" has not paid off yet, but the retailer says the early signs are promising.
The company rolled out the policy last year which boosted the wage of trained staff, who had logged enough hours at work, to between $18 and $20 an hour.
Warehouse chief executive Mark Powell said said the higher wages cost the company $6 million a year, with 63 per cent of permanent staff now earning at least $18 an hour - well above the legal minimum of $14.25.
