McDonald’s is to raise wages in China, after claims that it and other foreign fast-food chains have underpaid their staff, a report says.

Chinese salaries are to rise between 12% and 56%, a firm spokesperson said, reported Agence France Presse (AFP).

“The average salary increase will be around 30%,” said the spokesperson for the firm, which operates around 800 restaurants in China.

Earlier reports said McDonald’s and KFC had underpaid workers.
