Safety First: Former crew members share how safety has always been a top priority at McDonald’s

“Safety has always been at the core of our operating culture and will always be. Our M Safe program is a testament to this - quality, service, value, and cleanliness have been integral parts of McDonald’s since day one and who can better talk about this than our former crew members who have turned into loyal customers. We continue to stay true to our commitment on safety – first for our people and for all customers across all channels. As we all continue to navigate through these challenging times, the public can count on us in making sure their McDonald’s experience is always safe. We encourage customers to share feedback too via msafe@ph.mcd.com.” ~Kenneth S. Yang, President and Chief Executive Officer of McDonald’s Philippines

McDonald's recently released an M Safe video, where former store employees of the company talked about how being safe at McDonald’s makes them feel good. In this video, we get to learn about Henric, a former crew at McDo Robinsons Novaliches who shared how working at McDonald’s has taught him the value of safety early on. Years after and an own business later, he recalls and proudly shares how serious the company is on safety. We also get to learn about former crew members Arden and Khaycie who also highlighted how safety has always been ingrained at McDonald’s. As their work now as an accounting associate and a sales agent required them to be in the field, they looked back at how safety is the first lesson being taught to new employees, highlighting the global stringent guidelines and procedures.

Safety in every way

Customers are assured of safety in all ways. Apart from its Safety Seal-certified stores and its bid to support employees on vaccination, McDonald’s continues to innovate and provide customers with other safe choices where they can enjoy their food. 

Responding to consumer preferences, McDonald’s introduced Bike & Dine, Ride Thru, and Outdoor Dining so any customer can enjoy their favorites conveniently and safely.

Whether, dine-in, delivery or ride thru, customers are assured that their food is safely prepared through its stringent global food quality standards and strict safe and healthy protocols.

McDonald’s Philippines master franchise holder, Dr. George T. Yang, opened the first McDonald’s store in Morayta, Manila in 1981. Since then, McDonald’s in the Philippines has been a strong and relevant player in the country’s quick service restaurant industry, having grown a store network of over 655 across the country. McDonald’s Philippines continues to aspire to  make a difference in communities where it operates through its charity of Choice, Ronald McDonald House Charities Philippines.
