BBC investigation uncovers claims of intimidation, bullying and racist slurs in some outlets
McDonald’s has apologised after more than 100 current and recent UK restaurant staff alleged sexual harassment was rife at some outlets and said they regularly faced mistreatment.
The publication of a BBC investigation on Tuesday caused a storm in Westminster. The chair of the business and trade committee, Darren Jones, said the claims were “some of the most appalling” he had heard, while a spokesperson for the prime minister said the allegations were “deeply concerning”.
