November 07, 2025

MCDONALD'S has agreed a further set of measures with Britain’s equality watchdog to protect the fast food chain’s staff from sexual abuse.

The Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC) had originally signed a legal agreement with McDonald’s to prevent sexual harassment in 2023, following concerns about how complaints made by staff were handled in its UK restaurants.

The original agreement was due to end in 2025, but this has now been strengthened and extended for at least a year.
