Our Approach

Impact Strategy & Governance

We believe we have a responsibility to ensure long-term, sustainable value creation by taking action on the environmental and social issues that are most important to our stakeholders and business.

Stakeholder Engagement & Public Policy

Against the backdrop of a continually changing external landscape, we engage with key stakeholder groups on environmental and social issues that are relevant to the Company and where we believe McDonald’s can have the greatest impact.

Business Resilience

We take action to help ensure we are building a better business and a more trusted brand for generations to come by being resilient and agile in the face of challenging circumstances beyond our control.

Contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals

Much of what we, our Franchisees and our suppliers do has the potential to contribute to sustainable development.

Food Quality & Sourcing

We are working toward responsibly sourcing our priority commodities, prioritizing animal health and welfare and making safe, quality food accessible to families across the world.
