Tesco escaped adding a pay rebellion to its woes after securing 96.9% support for its remuneration report at its annual shareholder meeting in Cardiff.
The chain, the world's number three retailer, also rejected a call from a trade union group to review the strategy for its loss-making Fresh & Easy stores in the US.
The so-called shareholder spring has led to the departures of Aviva boss Andrew Moss and Sly Bailey, head of newspaper group Trinity Mirror, as well as defeats on advisory pay votes for the likes of Edinburgh-based Cairn Energy.
