At this year's Multi-Unit Franchise Conference held in Las Vegas last week a significant topic of discussion was rising wages. Over 400 franchise operators representing 15,000+ units across the nation attended educational seminars and other networking sessions.
I write about the franchised restaurant and food services industry.Demonstrators march during a rally near McDonald's Corp. headquarters in Oak Brook, Illinois, U.S., on Wednesday, May 20, 2015. Labor activists seeking $15-an-hour wages marched on McDonald's headquarters on Wednesday, marking the second straight year of protests ahead of the fast-food chain's annual meeting.
The National Restaurant Association reported that in a letter McDonald's stated that, going forward"will not use our resources, including lobbyists or staff, to oppose minimum wage increases at the federal, state or local levels, nor will we participate in association advocacy efforts designed expressly to defeat wage increases."
Over the years McDonald’s had made claims that it would hike wage by at least one dollar over the minimum wage in company-owned units. The average starting hourly wage at company-owned McDonald's restaurant is $10 an hour.
