McDonald&rsquo;s said it is committed to preventing harassment at its stores.

&ldquo;We have policies, procedures and training in place that are specifically designed to prevent sexual harassment at our company and company-owned restaurants, and we firmly believe that our franchisees share this commitment,&quot; McDonald&rsquo;s said in an email to The Associated Press.

The strike is set to target select McDonald&rsquo;s locations in Chicago, Durham, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Miami, Milwaukee, New Orleans, Orlando, San Francisco and St. Louis. It is not clear how many workers will participate in the strike.
