Quality of work
Reliability
In McDonalds employees are rated according to these or more traits. Rated on his/her performance that the
employee is good in communication skills or not, the employee could work independently on its own. The
employee is cooperative with other his/her co-workers. The productivity of work that weather he/she could
work more and proper in less time and finally is the employee is reliable means he/she will work on time
appropriately. Well the graphic rating scale method which McDonalds use is a best and simplest method for
thembecause employees from floor base to managerial level are rated easily. The scale lists the suitable traits or
standards for the employees according to their work or job and they are rated fairly as according to theirperformance.

banding allows for flexibility in terms of pay, growth and movement.
WHY THEY USING BROADBANDING METHOD
McDonalds is using broad banding method for compensation because it is the most used method by companies and
it is relatively easy to handle. As there are so many jobs and each job has its own description and value so by
making bands of similar jobs and assigning them the appropriate salaries will make easy for McDonalds to set the
pays of employees.
COMPETENCY-BASED PAY

McDonalds dont apply the Competency-Based Pay Method because in this method pays are established as
according to the performance of employee such as: If a crew member is working according to the level of
manager his performance is equivalent to manger so their pays will be same. But McDonalds pay their
employees according to the job or level. Mangers own different higher pays as compared to worker or Crew
members.

of questioners, in which he asks about the overtime policies or bonuses, the starting salaries or other

B. JOB EVALUATION :
The second step in establishing pay rates is evaluating jobs or JOB EVALUATION
In Job Evaluation jobs are evaluated or compared with each other on the basis of qualifications, skills,
responsibilities and working conditions. McDonalds follows the Job Classification method of job Evaluation
because they have categorized their
jobs into two main classes known as:

McDonalds evaluate its job on the basis of working hours of their employees more clearly for the crew
members they use the part time job evaluation and for managerial level staff they use full time evaluation
PART TIME EMPLOYEES:

After job evaluation, McDonalds grouped similar nature of jobs into pay grades for establishing pay rates. As
McDonalds uses the job classification technique so their jobs are already in a grouped form and they establish pay
grades according to part time and full time jobs.
D.PRICING OF PAY GRADES
This step assigns pay rates to pay grades. For assigning pay rates to any level of job, McDonalds usesW age
Curve which shows the relationship between value of the job and wage price for the job. McDonalds through

.
-
8/8/2019 Hrm in Mc Donalds
18/20
COLLECTIVE BARGAINING IN MCDONALDS UNION
There is no such collective bargaining system is McDonalds because McDonalds dont have a predefined labor
or crew unions. McDonalds culture supports anti-union concept. When a crew member or any lower level
employee joins the McDonalds he/she have no basic knowledge of Unions, but after working for a period of
time, when they get familiar with the culture of McDonalds they become more firm at anti-union concept. Theformer CEO and Chairman of McDonalds Peter Ritchie says Unions stifleCreativity; there is no place for
unions at McDonalds; I have spent my entire life opposing unions; I have had some horrible and
stressful fights with union leaders, its often very difficult keeping them out
McDonalds has a well systematic pay rates, benefits and employee needs program so when a new employee
comes to join McDonalds they define every single policy, values, culture and employee benefits or
compensation programs. So he employee working in McDonalds is well-aware of their procedure of employee
relations. More precisely, when McDonalds hire an employee they make
every thing clear and if the employee agrees to work in such environment than they allow him to work.
PAY- RELATED BARAGAINING IN MCDONALDS
Unions play an important role in pay-related issues. Most of the time employees are not satisfied with their
pays. So they create problems, although many different agreements are signed between employees and
management. But as in McDonalds there are no such unions so the problem related to pay to employees would
be that if a crew member do wage bargaining with employer individually In McDonalds most of the
employees dont favor for this method because they typically believe that
such strategies would be:
Bad for morale
Difficult to administer
More time consuming
Encourage discrimination or favoritism
Although on other hand some employees believe that it should be done on the basis of:
On-the-job performance or workplace effort.
Like if an employee performs well his/her pay should be increased through individual bargaining, that the
employee himself should demand for more pay.
But the management or managers of McDonalds believe that pay is not a subject on which employees negotiate
individually, because according to them they have no discretion to enter into such arrangements that involve
altering individual crew or small group wages on the grounds of performance. In McDonalds when employee is
