Twenty-three new complaints of sexual harassment have been filed against McDonald’s. Most of these complaints have been filed with the EEOC, and three have been filed as civil rights suits. The complaints include inappropriate touching, and retaliation for reporting inappropriate conduct. Employees have stated that upon reporting sexual harassment, their scheduled work hours were reduced by managers. As a result of the company failing to take a strong stance against sexual harassment, inappropriate conduct continues. The firm has stated that it is committed to preventing sexual harassment, and is working to strengthen its current policies.
