This is mostly speculation --> Unfortunately I imagine that since most of these brands are predominately franchised (maybe not?) that if Yum brands ever raises wages it won't reduce franchising fees. Being a franchiser is difficult and they often owe money to investors as well as paying fees which means that they don't have much of a profit margin to cut into. This means more part-time workers or other workarounds to ensure that the total being paid to workers is still the same.
