About 32,000 hourly workers at Disney World will get raises equal to $3 an hour by the end of the year, and most will get raises of about 37% of their current pay by 2026

About 75% of the full-time hourly workers covered under the deal currently get about $15 an hour, according to the unions. The employees do everything from perform as characters to staff restaurants and shops, drive buses, trams and monorails as well as work at front desks and perform hotel housekeeping duties. They would receive a retroactive pay increase to $16 an hour back to October of 2022, and see their current pay increase to $17 an hour upon ratification of the deal.

“The company finally heard voices of the cast members,” Matt Hollis, the president of the Service Trades Council Union, the collection of unions that are negotiating with Disney management, said in an interview with CNN Business. “I can’t help but believe the overwhelming result of the previous vote played a role in reaching this agreement. I think an overwhelming majority of cast members will see this as a win.” The company did not immediately reply to a request for comment.

After they layoff 4k workers, schedule for April.

So DeSantis winning already

That only means that the already expensive tickets will be even more expensive. The costs will just be passed on to the customers.

Hush money from the pedophiles.

Cut 7000 jobs to give the rest a raise........

No Disney+ for me thanks, & my homebrew coffee is as good or better than Starbucks. Byebye Disney, byebye Starbucks.

What does DeSantis think about this. That money is not going to those funny unJesus people, is it?

But after inflation, is it even a real raise?

So Disney pays their employees about $8 per hour currently

Not going to mention the layoffs that are coming, are you

Plus they each get 5 young children to do......wait, I can't say that here.

So woke!!

Working at Disney was the worst job of my entire life.

Great now tickets will be $150 to get in the gate. Either way my family is not going back. Cost almost $1,000 a day all in to go there for a family of 5

Well park admission just tripled.

That’s not enough to work there.
