Disney Workers Rising, the Disneyland unions’ bargaining group, said today it’s reached a tentative agreement with the company on a new three-year contract covering 14,000 workers at Disneyland parks and resorts.
Members, part of the Master Services Council will vote on the new deal Monday. They had previously authorized the group to call a strike if no agreement was reached — the deal averts that for now.
“We achieved our goals – a 3-year contract that contains significant wage increases for all cast members, seniority increases and additional premiums as well as the retention of premiums. We also addressed issues that will make the attendance policy work better for cast members,” the group posted on X today. It said concerted action from big rallies to wearing union buttons to worldwide news coverage drove the bargaining.
“We have shown Disney that we are the true magic makers of the park.
We stood up to the company’s unfair labor practices and showed them that we were willing to do whatever it took to get the contract we deserved. Our solidarity and victory today sends a message to workers everywhere – when we fight, we win.”
