MORE THAN 700 McDonald’s workers have joined a sexual abuse and harassment class-action lawsuit a year after its British boss promised to clean up behaviour at the fast-food chain.

Leigh Day legal firm said over 450 restaurants have been implicated in the allegations with claims including discrimination, homophobia, racism, ableism and harassment since a BBC exposé into the allegations in 2023.

One 19-year-old crew member has told of how his colleagues were scared of going into work, and that managers would “touch up” other members of staff.
