Like many jobs in the service sector, working at McDonald’s does involve standing. At first this can be tiring, but it’s also a great way to achieve the recommended 10,000 steps per day and keep active!

-
In company restaurants there have been different rates of pay for under 18s and over 18s for the last five years. Once an employee reaches their eighteenth birthday, their rate of pay is automatically adjusted to the new minimum. However, some employees who are under 18 may have progressed to earn a higher rate than the standard over 18 rate. in these cases a pay rise will not be awarded following their eighteenth birthday. All McDonald’s rates of pay are higher than the minimum wage.

Even in other restaurant we see that if an employee work in the kitchen he is trained there only except very few can work everywhere. Management don't differenciate between under 18 or over 18. i've seen employee at 16 years age forced to work 11 hours shift. this is not good and illegal
-
McDonald’s Crew Training Programme trains crew on all stations within 12 months, if they’re part-time. This is to ensure that full training and verification is given on each area before progressing. McDonald’s encourages crew to speak with their restaurant manager or HR department if they feel that they are not receiving job rotation or adequate training. With regard to under 18s working 11-hour shifts, this should not be the case as there are measures in place which alert restaurant managers and to prevent this from happening.
