SEORANG pekerja McDonald's memenangkan kompensasi 3 ribu poundsterling setelah dipecat karena dianggap berbuat 'tidak pantas'  - menuangkan cokelat terlalu banyak pada McFlurry.

Sarah Finch, 19, dipecat karena memberi teman kerjanya lebih banyak coklat pada menu seharga 99 penny (Rp15 ribuan) padahal sang teman membayar.

Namun, sang bos menuduhnya bersalah, karena Sarah dianggap memberikan makanan secara gratis.

Remaja putri asal Kidwelly, West Wales, mengatakan: "Itu soal sepele, bahwa saya memberikan sesama karyawan, yang membeli hidangan penutup, dengan lebih banyak taburan cokelat."

Pegawai yang dibayar 180 pounds (Rp2,8 juta) sepekan ini ini menambahkan: "Tidak ada standar untuk tindakan tersebut. Teman saya meminta: "Bikinlah yang bagus. Takaran saya keliru karena malah kebanyakan, tapi itu lebih baik daripada kurang."

Ibunya, Sarah Finch, seorang akuntan mengatakan: "Kami telah diinstruksikan untuk diam dan saya taati," sebelum menambahkan: "Tapi, kami dirugikan dan mereka harus membayar ganti rugi."

Sarah, yang sedang sekolah di jurusan IPA digambarkan sebagai 'karyawan biasa' sebelum dipecat.

Klaim pemecatan yang tidak adil tersebut diselesaikan di luar pengadilan dan dia mendapat kompensasi sebesar 3 ribu pounds (hampir Rp47 juta).

Juru bicara restoran waralaba McDonalds mengatakan: "Kasus tersebut telah diselesaikan yang menguntungkan kedua belah pihak."

A MCDONALD’S worker has won £3,000 compensation after being sacked for gross misconduct – for sprinkling too much chocolate on a McFlurry.

Sarah Finch, 19, was fired for giving her workmate extra sprinkles on the 99p ice cream, which she had paid for.

Yet, bosses justified Sarah's dismisal by accusing her of giving away food without payment.

The teenager, from Kidwelly, West Wales, said: “The matter was trivial, in that I provided a fellow employee, who was purchasing a dessert, a generous sprinkling of chocolate pieces.”

The £180-a-week worker went on to say: “There is no standard for such measures.

“My colleague had asked me: ‘Make it a nice one. So the measure I gave erred on the side of more than, rather than less than, the mean.’

 Her mother, accountant Tessa Finch, said: “We’ve been instructed not to say anything and I have to stand by that,” before adding: “But, we had them firmly by the knackers and they had to pay up.”

Sarah, who is studying for her A Levels in chemistry, physics and biology, was described as an ‘exceptional employee’ before being sacked.

The unfair dismissal claim was settled out of court and she was awarded more than £3,000 compensation.

A spokesman for the McDonalds franchise said: “This matter has now been resolved to the satisfaction of both parties.”
