Both Disney and the unions called the agreement “historic” for Disneyland cast members, Disney parlance for workers.
“These contracts are historic for Disney cast members and we’re pleased cast members’ lives will improve as a result,” Disneyland Workers Rising said in a statement.
The “biggest wage increases ever” for Disneyland resort employees will raise hourly pay more than $6 over three years from the current $19.90 to $24 in 2024 and $26 in 2026, according to the unions.
Long-term employees will get a 50-cent pay increase for 10 years of service and $2 for 20 years.
The contracts go into effect immediately at Disneyland, Disney California Adventure and Downtown Disney, according to the unions. »
