The restaurant industry, which employs half of American women at some point in their lives, has one of the country’s largest sexual harassment problems because its low-wage and largely female workforce is vulnerable to mistreatment from customers and colleagues.

Taken from the article:
“Also, McDonald’s in April proposed settling a National Labor Relations Board case that allows it to avoid a joint employer ruling without paying any money to franchise workers who claimed they were fired, suspended or had their hours cut for participating in Fight for $15 protests calling for higher wages.”
Either way, I don’t think this is going to end well. With kiosks and robots coming for these workers’ jobs, there is no incentive to even pretend to do anything about these abuses. Also, if I were so inclined to eat at this establishment, I would be wondering right about now, just what else is in that Big Mac ‘special sauce’? With sexual harassment taking place, maybe robots flipping burgers would be a better solution. But then, where are these people going to work? This entire situation is truly and sadly pitiful.

I agree, Shelby, the future looks pretty grim for low wage workers. I do find it somewhat heartening, though, to see women finally speaking out about (and being supported) about sexual harassment.
