What our GEDWorks™ partners are saying:
The feedback from franchisees has been overwhelmingly positive, with franchisees finding GEDWorks was a cost-effective program with a huge halo effect. Every pilot franchisee kept the program. ‘We love it, it’s amazing!’ they told us.
Marnie Alvarenga, Senior Manager, Pizza Hut Academy
Quick service restaurants (QSR) typically experience a brutal 200% turnover. With unemployment being low, fast food has been hit especially hard with trying to retain and recruit workers. Among active GEDWorks participants, turnover is only 56%.
Debbie Rollins, Program Analyst, KFC Foundation
GEDWorks is about tearing down barriers and helping people achieve their aspirations. From the day we learned about GEDWorks, we instantly saw value in the program through staffing our properties, to creating a more supportive place to work, and it aligned with who we are as a brand in cultivating genuine relationships, real results.
