Bada ba ba ba! When it comes to Obamacare, rumors are abound that the fast-food giant is far from lovin’ a segment of the new bill.
The Wall Street Journal reported Thursday morning that McDonald’s Corp. is in limbo surrounding its ability to foot medical benefits for its 30,000 hourly workers. The alleged concern is centered on a stipulation for “mini-med” plans, which McDonald’s provides to more than 10,000 of its workers.
McDonald’s responded this afternoon, labeling the paper’s report as a filet-o-falsehood. UPI reports that the company released a statement on the opposite front, remaining committed to coverage for its staffers.
“Regardless of how the regulations evolve over the next several months, McDonald’s is committed to providing competitive pay and benefits, and the strongest employment opportunities possible.”
