     1        A.  Yes.
     2
     3   Q.   The individual numbers do, in fact, add up to 41.2 per cent
     4        under minorities.
     5        A.  OK.
     6
     7   Q.   You were telling us that Officials and Managers mean
     8        salaried people?
     9        A.  That is correct.
    10
    11   Q.   Right.  You have at the back of this little bundle at E a
    12        chart showing the hierarchy, if I can call it that, of the
    13        Corporation in America ---
    14        A.  Yes.
    15
    16   Q.   -- which I think you had prepared for the purposes of your
    17        evidence?
    18        A.  Yes, I did.
    19
    20   Q.   Tell us, please, looking at that chart where hourly paid
    21        staff or employees end and where salaried staff begin?
    22        A.  At the Manager Trainee area, we refer to them as
    23        salaried, and on up from Manager Trainee on up are
    24        salaried; from Swing Manager on down would be hourly.
    25
    26   Q.   McDonald's highest rank of hourly paid worker in this
    27        country is something called a Floor Manager who is at the
    28        same level as we have swing Manager in your structure?
    29        A.  Yes.
    30
    31   Q.   Is that the same ---
    32        A.  Yes, it is.
    33
    34   Q.   -- as far as you know.  Looking at your hierarchy below the
    35        line and starting with Swing Manager and going downwards,
    36        is Swing Manager paid more generally than the next three in
    37        the rank below?
    38        A.  Yes, they are.
    39
    40   Q.   These are higher hourly rated?
    41        A.  Yes.
    42
    43   Q.   What about the next three, Crew Trainer, Crew Chief and
    44        Floor Supervisor; are they all of the same rate?
    45        A.  No, generally speaking, crew trainers would be in the
    46        least category, and then it would move on up.  I know this
    47        shows them all along one line, but generally within our
    48        organisation, the promotions work that you start as a
    49        general crew person and then when you are able to take on
    50        some more responsibility, you would become a crew trainer. 
    51        The crew trainers are someone who trains others. 
    52 
    53        Then you move to what we could call a Crew Chief, and that
    54        person has responsibility for a small portion, if you will,
    55        of the operation, a particular area within the restaurant.
    56        Then from there the Floor Supervisor, you are getting
    57        closer to the Swing Manager and, that is, you are taking
    58        broader responsibilities, broader areas of the restaurant,
    59        if you will, but they do not -- we call it a certification
    60        process.  They are not totally certified to run shifts.
