McDonald's temporarily suspends operations throughout Russia
McDonald's plans to temporarily close its facilities across Russia from March 14. However, the office of the company and the charitable foundation Ronald McDonald House will operate in a regular mode. And payments to employees and partners will continue. The company has estimated the cost of liabilities in the amount of up to 50 million dollars a month. McDonald's in Russia employs more than 62 thousand people, and about 100 thousand more at suppliers' facilities.
As the company noted, all workers will remain and continue to receive a full salary, as well as retain all social benefits and guarantees that the company provides them. In addition, during the temporary closing of all sites, McDonald's will fulfill all its obligations to suppliers and landlords. And according to TASS, fast-food restaurants may reopen in a month and a half.
