McDonald's employees delivered one of the most visible disruptions to the chain's operations in years, with workers from restaurants in 13 cities walking off the job
Hundreds of workers at McDonald’s Corp. restaurants walked off the job on Thursday to protest what they described as low pay and workplace harassment.
Walkouts prompted operators to close four restaurants in St. Louis, and workers picketed outside a McDonald’s in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Several hundred workers from restaurants in 13 cities left their posts during the breakfast rush, said unions and advocacy groups coordinating their efforts to seek higher pay, labor representation and safer working conditions.
