The McDonald's Story Continues
CEO Fraud?
Deleting Evidence - Lying to the Board
- 'With Cause'


Ex-McDonald's CEO Fires Back at Chain's Effort to Strip Pay

- Easterbrook denies he covered up relationships with employees
- McDonald's sued executive over sexual relations with workers


"McDonald's -- a sophisticated entity represented by numerous internal and external experts when it entered into the separation agreement -- is aware it cannot credibly allege a breach of contract claim,” Easterbrook's lawyers said Friday in a filing Delaware Chancery Court, seeking to have the lawsuit thrown out. "Instead,
it improperly seeks to manufacture claims for a breach of fiduciary duty or fraud.

"McDonald's stands by its complaint, both the factual assertions and the court in which it was filed,” the company said.

McDonald's said
an internal investigation discovered "dozens of nude, partially nude or sexually explicit photographs and videos of various women, including photographs of these Company employees, that Easterbrook had sent as attachments to messages from his Company e-mail account to his personal e-mail account."

McDonald's alleged in the lawsuit that Easterbrook had "
lied to the Company and the Board and destroyed information regarding" his behavior, which allegedly occurred in 2018 and 2019.

This Past Weekend Saw Most Shootings, Deaths Since July 4th Weekend

198 Shootings, 47 Killed in 37 U.S. Cities Studied - Aug. 14-16

Following the historically violent July 4th weekend, where we reported 233 shootings and 70 killed in 30 cities studied, the D&D Daily published a four-week report to monitor violent crime in these same cities.

This past weekend, the Daily analyzed crime in 37 cities and found that crime appears to be on the rise again. The Aug. 14-16 weekend saw the most shootings and deaths since the 4th of July weekend.

Click here to view the complete breakdown of this past weekend's violence in 37 American cities, including those under the umbrella of 'Operation Legend'. Continue to follow along in the coming weeks as the Daily monitors violence in these cities.

Riot declared, dozens arrested and officers injured in
Portland, Seattle, Chicago weekend protests
Dozens were arrested over the weekend in major cities including Portland, Seattle and Chicago as demonstrations over systemic racism and police brutality in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd continued.

Video taken Sunday showed a confrontation blocks away from a peaceful protest in
Portland after police declared a riot overnight Saturday. Protests, often violent, have happened nightly in Portland for more than two months follow Floyd's death on Memorial Day in Minneapolis.

Three police officers were injured and 18 people were arrested as a result of a riot in Seattle involving explosives, bottles and rocks, authorities said. A protest against the Seattle Police Officers Guild erupted into violence just after 10 p.m. Sunday night, police said in a news release. Someone set off a large explosive and attempted to break the window of a police vehicle, the statement said. Of the three officers injured, police said one was hospitalized.

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot praised city police Sunday for "fairly quickly” settling weekend protests that devolved into violent skirmishes while activists and other elected officials blasted police for unnecessary aggressive tactics. usatoday.com

Looting Causing Foot Traffic Decline
Small business owner says 'domino effect' of looting hurting downtown shops

'People don't want to come downtown'

A second round of looting in downtown Chicago
largely targeted a number of high-end shops, but some smaller, family-run businesses say they're being hurt just as much. Just across the street from Grant Park sits Kilwins, a sweet business that's having a pretty sour season.

"We're a location that
solely depends on foot traffic and tourism and festivals,” said co-owner Janel Jackson.

In March, the pandemic and shutdown deeply impacted their stores. After the rioting and looting in late May, they took a major hit as their store on Michigan Avenue was among the many vandalized. It's just been a domino effect, one thing after the next after the next,” Jackson said.

Even though this candy and ice cream shop did not get hit during last week's looting, Jackson said it's still had a chilling effect. Their landlord has even given them warning about back rent due.

"We look great, but
if neighbors get looted and this neighbor gets looted and the block next to us gets looted... we still have to reap the repercussions of all that,” Jackson said. "We still don't have the foot traffic anymore because now people don't want to come downtown.” wgntv.com

FL.'s All Time High in COVID Deaths - But Crisis Improving
Florida Just Reported Its Deadliest Week For Coronavirus
Over the past week, the state of
Florida reported over 1,266 new deaths from Covid-19, setting a sobering new high for one of the nation's coronavirus epicenters, even as other statistics continue to show the state's crisis improving.

Other metrics, like new cases, hospitalizations and positive testing rate, have steadily dropped, indicating
coronavirus spread in the state is slowing down.

Deaths tend to lag behind other statistics, suggesting that the record breaking week was likely a result of case rises earlier in the summer

Florida reported 3,779 new coronavirus cases Sunday. That number is higher than what most countries usually report in a day, but it's actually the
lowest daily case increase since June.

Tx.; Another summer coronavirus hot spot, reported from Saturday, Aug. 8, to Saturday, Aug. 15.
The Lone Star State topped 1,700 deaths over that week alone. forbes.com

Validating the Daily's 'Mid Year Retail Violent Fatalities' Report 22% Increase
Troubling Surge in Homicides

In the Wake of Covid-19 Lockdowns, a Troubling Surge in Homicides

Across
20 major cities, the murder rate at the end of June was on average 37 percent higher than it was at the end of May. The increase over the same period a year ago was just 6 percent.

Much of it has involved incidents of random, angry violence like the conflict at the gas station — disputes between strangers that left someone dead, or killings that simply cannot be explained.

They have also prompted a much-debated intervention from the federal government, an operation named after the 4-year-old Kansas City boy, LeGend Taliferro, that has sent federal law enforcement agents to at least six cities in an attempt to intervene. nytimes.com

Domestic Violence, the "Shadow Pandemic,” Grows during Coronavirus
On a global scale, domestic violence has become such a big problem that the United Nations describes it as the
"shadow pandemic” with the coronavirus pandemic.

However, the coronavirus has added an entirely new dynamic to the stress and strain within the household. Domestic violence is thought to have
increased by 20% during the coronavirus lockdowns and closures.the UN has reported increases in the use of domestic violence helplines and shelters. inhomelandsecurity.com

Kroger & CVS Offering COVID Testing to Employers
Kroger and CVS Health are both pitching themselves to employers as nationwide testing delays cause long waits for patients and make it harder for public health officials to track the virus and stop its spread.

CVS has a program called Return Ready. Companies and colleges can hire the health-care company to open Covid-19 test sites at an office or on a campus, track tests at its drive-thru sites or handle related services, such as contact tracing or administering flu shots. CVS has more than 1,800 drive-thru testing locations.

Kroger's COVIDCare Plus is striking deals with corporations that can buy its at-home test kits at $119 each, which are shipped overnight to employees. Kroger can customize the program like setting up a test site at large manufacturing or meatpacking plants. It also plans to add rapid testing at its store pharmacies. cnbc.com

Corporate Leaders - Support Getting Your Flu Shot
Fearing a 'Twindemic,' Health Experts Push Urgently for Flu Shots
As public health officials look to fall and winter, the specter of a new surge of Covid-19 gives them chills. But
there is a scenario they dread even more: a severe flu season, resulting in a "twindemic.”

Even a mild flu season could stagger hospitals already coping with Covid-19 cases. And though officials don't know yet what degree of severity to anticipate this year, they are worried large numbers of people could forgo flu shots, increasing the risk of widespread outbreaks.

The concern about a twindemic is so great that officials around the world are pushing the flu shot even before it becomes available in clinics and doctors' offices. Dr. Robert Redfield, director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has been talking it up,
urging corporate leaders to figure out ways to inoculate employees. The C.D.C. usually purchases 500,000 doses for uninsured adults but this year ordered an additional 9.3 million doses.

The 2019-20 flu season in the United States was mild, according to the C.D.C. But a mild flu season still takes a toll. In preliminary estimates, the C.D.C. says that cases ranged from 39 million to 56 million, resulting in up to 740,000 hospitalizations and from
24,000 to 62,000 flu-related deaths. nytimes.com

Getting Back to Normal
Walmart & Others Staying Open Later Now
The trend of shortening hours when the pandemic started, in order to restock and step up cleaning procedures, is now well in hand with Walmart hiring 200,000 and Kroger hiring 100,000 new associates and others just getting operations back under control.

Top retailers and grocers are starting to extend hours and returning to normal operations. A shift that will be more visible nationwide as time goes on and hopefully have a calming effect. cnn.com

Masks That Don't Help
New Guidance on Face Masks and COVID-19
Masks with valves don't stop the virus, the CDC warns

New information and guidance have emerged on how face masks prevent the spread of COVID-19 and which ones provide the best protection. Masks with valves are ineffective; neck gaiters, worn around the neck and pulled up over the mouth and nose when needed, may not work either. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention also discourages the use of clear plastic face shields as a substitute for masks. shrm.org

Wage theft plagues L.A. garment workers
Why aren't fashion retailers held responsible?


Cheap Clothing & 45,000 Immigrant Workers in Small LA Apparel Factories

Advocates are proposing the industry's biggest reforms in a generation, legislation that would turn the traditional pay structure on its head while holding online shops such as Fashion Nova and other retailers including Nordstrom responsible for any wage theft that occurs in the making of their apparel.

The
bill, SB 1399, is so far-reaching that it's being labeled by critics as an existential threat to what remains of the region's once-booming apparel industry, which has shrunk to roughly 45,000 workers after decades of competition from cheap foreign labor. More than a dozen business groups have lined up against it, including the industry's trade association, the California Chamber of Commerce and the California Retailers Assn.

Opposition, though, is not uniform as
some high-profile L.A.-area companies are backing the bill, including Reformation, which markets eco-friendly women's wear and has a celebrity clientele, and Fashion Nova, the popular fast-fashion retailer, which has been accused of turning a blind eye to wage theft but recently announced changes to its contracting practices.

The proposed reforms follow those enacted in 1999, four years after 72 undocumented Thai workers were found virtually enslaved in an El Monte apartment complex, stitching together clothing behind barbed wire. That legislation made garment manufacturers liable for wage violations by the contractors who cut, sew and otherwise produce their garments.

Advocates say that some fashion brands and retailers that carry their own clothing lines
have found ways to skirt the law by employing layers of subcontracting between them and the small factories that actually produce apparel.

This is a huge overhaul of the entire industry,” said Jennifer Barrera, executive vice president of the California Chamber of Commerce, which has labeled the bill a "job killer,” though she acknowledged there was "no question” labor abuses occur in the industry. "You incentivize companies to basically say, 'I am not going to contract anymore in California. I can go elsewhere and not be exposed to this type of litigation.'” latimes.com

BLM Protest Backs Retail Crime
Chicago, IL: Black Lives Matter Holds Rally Supporting Arrested Looters
Members of Black Lives Matter held a solidarity rally on Monday night with the more than 100 individuals who were arrested after a night of looting and unrest in Chicago. The rally was held at the South Loop police station where organizers say those individuals are currently being held in custody.

"I don't care if someone decides to loot a Gucci or a Macy's or a Nike store, because that makes sure that person eats," Ariel Atkins, a BLM organizer, said. "That makes sure that person has clothes."

Black Lives Matter Chicago organized the rally after unrest throughout the city early Monday, with police saying that more than 100 individuals were taken into custody for a variety of offenses, including looting.

"That is reparations," Atkins said. "Anything they wanted to take, they can take it because these businesses have insurance." nbcchicago.com

How the LP Team Can Drive a Culture of Retail Excellence


Loss prevention is a common thread that runs through an entire retail organization. The larger the organization and the more siloed its departments, the easier it becomes for this fact to be lost across the breadth of its org chart. The LP department often finds itself stuck in low gear. How can it break out of this status quo to ensure its efforts help the organization as a whole to win?

Security Jobs With a Future -- And Ones on the Way Out

Some titles are hot, while others are not, amid rapidly shifting business priorities.

Jobs aren't the same as two or three years ago," he acknowledges. "The types of skill sets employers are looking for is evolving rapidly."

Three factors have led the evolution, Mike O'Malley, VP of strategy at Radware. The first, of course, is COVID-19 and the sudden need for large-scale remote workforces.

"Through this we are seeing a need for people who understand zero-trust work environments," he says. "Job titles around knowing VPN [technology] and how to enable remote work with the understanding that everyone should be considered an outsider [are gaining popularity]."

The next trend is cloud computing. With more organizations putting their workloads in public and private clouds, they've become less interested in hardware expertise and want people who understand the tech's complex IT infrastructure.

A bigger focus on business resiliency is the third major trend. The know-how needed here emphasizes technologies that make a network more intelligent and enable it to learn how to protect itself. Think: automation, artificial intelligence, and machine learning.

In reality, how important is zero trust?
Although most IT and security professionals think of zero trust as an important part of their cybersecurity approach, many still have a long way to go on their quest to deploying it, according to Illumio.

Especially as users continue to move off campus networks to a distributed work-from-home model and face new and expanding threat vectors, organizations must quickly adopt the zero trust security mindset of “never trust, always verify” to mitigate the spread of breaches by limiting access and preventing lateral movement.

Notably, 49 percent of the participants surveyed find zero trust to be critical to their organizational security model. Only 2 percent of business leaders believe zero trust is nonessential for their enterprise security posture.

“Zero trust is mission critical to any cybersecurity strategy. Adversaries don’t stop at the point of breach – they move through environments to reach their intended target or access your crown jewels,” said Matthew Glenn, senior vice president of product management at Illumio.

In today’s world, stopping the lateral movement of attackers has become fundamental to a defender’s job. What’s more, as employees continue to work remotely at scale, it is essential to extend zero trust to the endpoint to further reduce the attack surface and secure the enterprise.” helpnetsecurity.com

Derisking AI by design
How to build risk management into AI development

The compliance and reputational risks of artificial intelligence pose a challenge to traditional risk-management functions. Derisking by design can help.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to redefine how businesses work. Already it is
unleashing the power of data across a range of crucial functions, such as customer service, marketing, training, pricing, security, and operations. To remain competitive, firms in nearly every industry will need to adopt AI and the agile development approaches that enable building it efficiently to keep pace with existing peers and digitally native market entrants. But they must do so while managing the new and varied risks posed by AI and its rapid development.

The reports of
AI models gone awry due to the COVID-19 crisis have only served as a reminder that using AI can create significant risks. The reliance of these models on historical data, which the pandemic rendered near useless in some cases by driving sweeping changes in human behaviors, make them far from perfect.

Companies need to
build risk management directly into their AI initiatives, so that oversight is constant and concurrent with internal development and external provisioning of AI across the enterprise. We call this approach "derisking AI by design.”  mckinsey.com

Amazon Wants Dismissal in Staten Island COVID Safety Class Action
Amazon Says Virus Safety Claims Are OSHA's Domain
Amazon workers who filed a suit claiming the company's Staten Island warehouse conditions pose a COVID-19 risk should take their complaints to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, the e-commerce behemoth told a New York federal judge.

In a memorandum supporting its motion to dismiss the suit Tuesday, Amazon told U.S. District Judge Brian Cogan the employees' workplace safety claims went too far and that their public nuisance claims, which assert a risk to public health due to allegedly lax COVID-19 protocols at the facility, are impossible to investigate in a city like New York.

OSHA has already been working with Amazon on COVID-19 prevention in the workplace through site visits and investigations, and has special expertise in keeping workplaces safe.

Amazon also repeated its accusation that the employees are trying to "exploit" the pandemic to furthers their own agenda on workplace safety.

The judge is already leaning toward shunting the dispute to OSHA, saying he's not entirely comfortable making safety judgements. law360.com

However, due to state laws and restrictions varying across the country and in the absence of official COVID-19 standards from OSHA, it is open to debate as to who has responsibility. law360.com

Speed Kills! As the old expression goes, so does the pace of today's world. With technology leashing us forward and mobile coming at the speed of light, no one can slow down. The problem then becomes focus and concentration. Multitasking, while impossible to avoid, leads to a reduction in quality and quality is what every senior executive must be focused on. So the next time you're running fast, just take one second and think, was the service you just delivered quality service.

Just a Thought,
Gus
