There be 1. 5 million people works at McDonalds in 119 countries nigh the world. Are they creating employment? Yes they ar. They create employment, but still workers in the luxuriant food industry ar paid slump wages.McDonalds do not pay overtime rates even when employees work very immense hours. Pressure to keep profits game and wage costs low departs in understaffing, so staff has to work harder and faster. As a consequence, accidents (particularly burns) are common. Since they are pressured to keep their profits high, McDonalds tends to receive plenty of capital or even profit, plenty enough to be the indicator of scotch ontogenesis. In small co untries, when a McDonalds franchised store opens the economic growth in those countries tends to increase.McDonalds promote their food as nutritious, but the reality is that it is pan food high in fat, sugar and salt, and low in roughage and vitamins. A diet of this type is linked with a greater risk of heart disease, cancer, diabetes and early(a) diseases. Their food also contains m whatsoever chemical additives, few of which whitethorn cause ill health, and hyperactivity in children. Many products sold at McDonalds restaurants are high in fat and cholesterol, and low in part and certain vitamins.For example, according to Bowes and Churchs Food Values of Portions Commonly Used (1989) by J. A. T. Pennington, 55% of the calories in a Big Mac come from fat, along with 83 mg of cholesterol. For a cheeseburger, fat content is 45%, with 41 mg of cholesterol. French fries are 47%, while a hamburger is 39% fat and holds 29 mg of cholesterol. Many some other products sold by the res taurant chain are similarly high in fat and cholesterol. For comparison, beans are only 4% fat. Rice is 1-5% fat, depending on the variety.A potato is less than 1% fat. As a result of their high content of fat and cholesterol, McDonalds products contribute to heart disease, certain forms of cancer, and other diseases. The links between high-fat diets and certain diseases are established beyond any reasonable doubt. (Dr. Neal Barnard, US Physicians Cttee. DIET & DISEASE) Even though McDonalds has some select of negative impacts to their customer, but McDonalds has done great things to the community. For example the Calgary Ronald McDonald House.They have helped by accommodating more than 11,000 families from all over the world. Ronald McDonald House is a spot away from home for out-of-town families with children, who have not reached their eighteenth birthday, who are receiving treatment at a Calgary medical exam facility. Space permitting, mothers who require medical treatment b ecause of high-risk pregnancies may also use RMH accommodations. As the conclusion, McDonalds may have some negative impact on the community, but on the other hand McDonalds helps the community to become a better community.
