| Helping Balance Your Work and Life |
|
Balancing work with your life outside of it can be challenging. McDonald's believes that it's important to strike the right balance. That's why we offer many programs designed to help our employees maintain or regain the right balance.
Vacation, holidays - McDonald's offers paid vacation for corporate, region and division office employees as well as Restaurant Management employees. The amount of vacation time employees have available depends on how long they have worked at McDonald's. In addition, McDonald's offers nine paid holidays (less for part-time workers) for eligible employees.
Anniversary Splash – Eligible employees get an extra week of paid time off in the year when they reach an anniversary “on the fives” – their five, fifteen, twenty-five or thirty-five year anniversary.
Sabbatical program - Eligible employees can take an eight-week sabbatical for every 10 years of full-time continuous service with the company.
Short Fridays - From mid-May through mid-September, McDonald's corporate, division and region offices' work hours begin a half hour early in order to end early (1:00) on Fridays.
Leave of absence - Because employees may be faced with difficult situations that require them to take time from work, McDonald's provides a leave of absence program with specific policies regarding types of leave such as family and medical leave, adoption leave and funeral leave.
Alternative Work Approach - To help corporate, division and regional office employees better balance their work and personal life, they may be able to arrange an Alternative Work Approach. There are two full-time options (flex time and compressed work week) and two part-time options (part-time schedule and job sharing).
Adoption assistance - Our adoption assistance program helps employees afford the costs associated with adopting a child under age 18. Employees are reimbursed for 80% of eligible expenses, up to $2,500 per child.
Child care - McDonald's has agreements with three national child care providers - Childtime Learning Center, Knowledge Learning Corporation and La Petite Academy - for a 10% discount on tuition for employees. (They do not offer discounted rates for children under age 2.)
Educational assistance - Our educational assistance program helps support eligible employees in their efforts to further their education. Employees can get reimbursed for 90% of eligible expenses, up to a maximum of $5,250 a year ($2,000 a year for part-time employees), for grades "C" and above.
Matching gift program - Our matching gifts program is designed to encourage employee support of not-for-profit organizations. With this program, McDonald's matches employee gifts to qualified educational, civic, cultural, health and youth organizations with one dollar for every dollar the employee contributes, up to $5,000 a year.
Employee Resource Connection - This program gives eligible employees access to a broad array of services that help them manage many facets of their life outside the office, including: Concierge services, for help in finding resources for almost anything employees may be interested in; financial services, for help with subjects such as setting a budget, getting out of debt, and any other financial information; legal services, for legal information and, if necessary, referrals to qualified attorneys; and counseling services for professional, confidential assistance for managing problems and personal concerns.
International Fitness Club Network – Employees can receive discounts on new membership or other rewards for existing membership at participating clubs nationwide, plus discounts on home fitness equipment, and online health and fitness information.
Auto and home insurance program - McDonald's employees can purchase auto and home insurance through the MetLife Auto and Home Insurance Program. The MetLife Auto and Home Insurance Program offers a McDonald's group rate plus other advantages.
BeyondWork - BeyondWork is a free Internet discount program for recreational products and services. McDonald's employees in the U.S. can go online 24 hours a day, seven days a week to BeyondWork's site and find valuable resources and savings on popular products and services.
Walt Disney discounts - McDonald's employees can order discounted passes for Disneyland and Walt Disney World. |
