"Around 100 Disneyland Resort employees are slated to be dropped from the theme park's payroll. On Tuesday, a spokesperson for Disneyland Resort told SFGATE that the company "made the difficult decision to eliminate a limited number of salaried positions" in a round of layoffs. "With our business in a period of steady, sustained operation, we are recalibrating our organization to ensure we continue to deliver exceptional experiences for our guests, while positioning Disneyland Resort for the future," the Disneyland spokesperson told SFGATE in an email."
"Several departments are expected to experience layoffs; however, Disneyland Resort declined to confirm which specific departments will be affected. At the time of writing, the California theme park has not filed a WARN notice. The Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act generally requires companies to give employees 60 days' notice in the event of mass layoffs. It is unclear when layoffs will take place."
""We are deeply grateful for the contributions of these cast members and are committed to supporting them with care, respect, and resources during this transition," the spokesperson said. The last major layoff occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic, when the company announced it would lay off 28,000 employees at Disneyland and 32,000 at Disney World. The company also cut jobs and conducted a targeted hiring freeze in 2022 to ensure profitability for Disney+."
About 100 Disneyland Resort employees are slated to be removed from payroll as the company eliminates a limited number of salaried positions. The company says it is recalibrating its organization during a period of steady, sustained operation to continue delivering guest experiences and position the resort for the future. Several departments may be affected, though specific departments were not confirmed and no WARN notice has been filed. The WARN Act typically requires 60 days' notice for mass layoffs, and the timing of any layoffs remains unclear. The company pledged support and resources for impacted cast members and previously cut thousands of jobs during the COVID-19 pandemic and a 2022 hiring freeze for Disney+ profitability.
