McDonald’s Has Again Received the Prestigious Employer Partner Certificate This Year

McDonald’s has received the sixth Employer Partner certificate, an acknowledgment for excellent human resource management. SELECTIO Group has been awarding the Employer Partner certificate for 18 years, encouraging organizations to implement those standards that have been proven to meaningfully improve the quality of workplaces and business results. Certified companies represent organizations that demonstrate compliance of their HR practices with global trends and continuously work towards achieving and setting higher standards in the HR world.

To ensure the necessary support for employees in their growth and development within the company, McDonald’s has developed programs for development and knowledge sharing, encouraging personal responsibility for advancement. All managers actively participate in knowledge transfer and employee development through internal training, mentoring, or coaching, and for this purpose, they undergo training for mentoring skills and human resource management. Mentors play a key role in preparing employees for training that will help them achieve their career advancement goals, as well as goals related to further knowledge and skill development. Additionally, all new hires and employees transitioning to a new position internally have dedicated mentors who continuously develop their skills.

Through a structured approach, the company invests valuable resources in creating a work environment where occupational safety and teamwork are prioritized, and the developmental path is clear for every employee. Employees have access to various forms of developmental activities, and last year, an average of 67 hours of education and training per employee was conducted. They also have numerous communication channels available to encourage two-way communication and feedback. Satisfaction with the support provided during the development process is measured up to twice a year, and employee response to participation in the last climate and satisfaction survey was extremely high.

Thus, McDonald’s has confirmed this year during certification the connection, purposefulness, and quality of HR practices it applies throughout the organization, at all levels. For this reason, the Employer Partner certificate signals to job seekers those workplaces where a healthy and stimulating environment is a priority.
