Ronald McDonald, Union Buster

The NLRB has charged over 75 McDonald’s franchise operations and the McDonald’s Corporation for retaliating against workers who participated in demonstrations for a $15 an hour wage.  

The McDonald’s Corporation says it is not a “joint employer” and has no responsibility for what its franchise operators do.


This is a company that is so proud of the fact that you can walk into any McDonald’s in the U.S.and get exactly the same quality french fries.  When you see those happy people on TV eating at McDonald’s, is the McDonald’s at the Mahoning Mall paying for that ad?  I don’t think so.  Of course McDonald’s bears a responsibility for its franchise operators.
