King is best known for the great quality food starting from the best quality
buns to patties and sauces, but the poor treatment of staff and poor hygiene
might cost the big food retailer a lot in the coming times.
The
fast food giant, Burger King announced that it will be terminating contracts ofover 89 franchises and outlets because of continued poor treatment of staff and
poor hygiene. This move turned out to be effective immediately but the German
franchise holder said to be operating the outlets until the foods stocks is
finished. Burger King said that it was a “difficult but necessary decision was
taken after Yi-Ko repeatedly failed to observe contractually fixed working
conditions for its 3,000 restaurant staff. Then move affects 89 of the fast
food chain's almost 700 German outlets, and 3,000 employees now face an
uncertain future.”
As
the local news has reported that a few franchised outlets have already been
shut down. Many of the outlets had already been temporarily closed for
improvements to hygiene standards and working conditions. The head of BurgerKing's German operations, Andreas Bork earlier said that “After the hygiene
scandal in May there were many improvements, but since the summer there were
fresh breaches of existing agreements. We are now putting an end to it with
this decision. Its other 599 restaurants in Germany would continue to operate
as normal.”
