New York (CNN Business) McDonald's is the latest restaurant to say it's raising wages in a bid to attract workers. The company is increasing hourly employees' pay by about 10%, it announced Thursday -- but the change applies only to a small percentage of staff. The remaining 95% of McDonald's US restaurants are owned and operated by franchisees, who can make their own decisions about wages. McDonald's said it is raising wages in some of its restaurants. McDonald's wants to hire about 10,000 employees at its company-owned restaurants this summer, the company said.
