“McDonald’s is hiring more than 6,000 people on Thursday. The one-day hiring blitz is being held on the third annual National Hiring Day held by McDonald’s. Job seekers are being invited to apply in person at their local McDonald’s for the 6,000 crew and 100 manager positions. “

I believe that McDonald was doing an ethical business decision, which was hiring 6,000 people, especially teens on national hiring day. Nowadays, McDonald becomes a significant resource of employment of teens. According to recent research, McDonald is one of Canada’s largest employers of youth, and some 65 per cent of its staff are between 15 and 24 years old. Noticing that Canada lost 55,000 jobs in March and the unemployment rate jumped to 7.2 per cent, I think that the stakeholders of McDonald, such as Canadian government and unemployed people, enjoyed a great benefit from this event. As Ed Freeman suggests, managers should manage so that all stakeholders benefit. McDonald not only has helped Canadian government somehow to cut high unemployment rate, but also has helped people to have a source of income to improve their living standard.
