2 A. Yes, I will accept that figure.
3
4 Q. Do you happen to know what "Management training hiring
5 success" means? It is just before the dotted line.
6 A. No. This is a report which emanates from what was my
7 department, but I never got involved in the calculations.
8
9 Q. I probably will not ask you many more questions. I just
10 want to have a quick look. If we look at page 700?
11 A. Yes.
12
13 Q. For March 1990, which is another relevant date for the

15 A. Yes.
16
17 Q. Is that correct?
18 A. Yes.
19
20 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I do not think they are monthly figures.
21 I think that is a quarterly figure.
22
23 THE WITNESS: It is a quarterly figure.
24
25 MR. MORRIS: Yes, I am sorry.
26
27 MR. JUSTICE BELL: They are quarterly, but they are annualised.
28 So they are built up to an annual rate, on the face of it?
29 A. Yes, I think the purpose of this reporting is it goes
30 in for every country in the world to Oakbrooks so that they
31 can work out what the turnover figure for the entire
32 organisation would be.
33
34 MS. STEEL: You said in your statement that the higher rates of
35 pay from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m. and 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. are for
36 antisocial hours; is that right?
37 A. Yes.
38
39 Q. How long has it been the case that McDonald's does not pay
40 overtime; has that always been the case?
41 A. To my knowledge -- to crew people?
42
43 Q. To crew people.
44 A. Yes.
45
46 Q. Yes.
47 A. To my knowledge, that has always been the case.
48
49 Q. You said you did not need to pay overtime because the crew
50 got enhanced rates for certain hours?
51 A. That is right.
52
53 Q. They should get overtime on top of that, should they not,
54 on top of rates for enhanced hours, should they not?
55 A. No.
56
57 Q. By law?
58 A. No.
59
60 Q. Certainly in 1986 they should have done, should they not?
