| 2006 | | ILO violation 1, 131 : Employees at a factory in southern China which produces toys for McDonald's and other firms typically work 11 hours a day, six days a week, and rack up to 70 hours of overtime a month. This violates China's labor law, which stipulates workers shall not work for more than 40 hours a week and 35 hours of overtime a month, it said. The factory deducts salary if workers refuse to work overtime and does not pay workers for taking national holidays, vacation or sick leave, according to the group. Overtime is not paid 1.5 times the regular rate as required by the law, it said. There is no base salary for workers, who are paid at piece rate. Salaries range between 600 and 800 yuan (75 and 100 usd) a month. More than 1,000 workers rioted over poor working conditions on July 2006. It took more than 100 factory policemen, riot squads and security guards to control the situation. Many people were injured and dozens of workers were arrested, according to China Labor Watch.: China | Forbes |

| 2005 | : On or about February 17, 2003, two minors, by their parents and guardians, filed an Amended Complaint against McDonald’s Corporation in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, seeking class action status on behalf of individuals in New York under the age of 18 who became obese or developed other adverse health conditions allegedly from eating McDonald’s products. On September 3, 2003, the Court dismissed all counts of the complaint with prejudice. On January 25, 2005, following an appeal by the plaintiffs, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals Court accepted to consider the following counts: (1) the combined effect of McDonald’s various promotional representations during the class period was to create the false impression that its food products were nutritionally beneficial and part of a healthy lifestyle if consumed daily; (2) McDonald’s failed adequately to disclose that its use of certain additives and the manner of its food processing rendered certain of its foods substantially less healthy than represented; and (3) McDonald’s deceptively represented that it would provide nutritional information to its New York customers when in reality such information was not readily available at a significant number of McDonald’s outlets in New York visited by the plaintiffs and others. Plaintiffs seek unspecified compensatory damages; an order directing McDonald’s to label its individual products specifying the fat, salt, sugar, cholesterol and dietary content; “funding of an educational program to inform children and adults of the dangers of eating certain foods” sold by McDonald’s; and attorneys’ fees and costs. | |
