Disneyland Resort is the most iconic theme park in the world.

Disney’s best-known characters are present in the park and woven into America’s national culture, recognized and celebrated around the world. People share more photographs from their visits to Disneyland than from any other place in the world, making it the most Instagrammed location on earth.

In 2016, 27.2 million people visited the Anaheim, California theme park. It generated over $3 billion in revenues for the Walt Disney Company.

Walt Disney is often quoted as saying, “You can design and create, and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make the dream a reality.” However, the people in this equation are being shortchanged.

Disneyland employees report high instances of homelessness, food insecurity, ever-shifting work schedules, extra-long commutes, and low wages. While there is national attention on the minimum wage with successful local efforts to raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour, more than 85% of union workers at Disneyland earn less than $15 an hour. Notwithstanding their economic hardships, four-fifths of employees say they are “proud of the work I do at the Disneyland Resort.”

Despite steep increases in the cost of housing and other necessities, Disneyland workers have suffered steady pay cuts and continue to struggle to make ends meet.
  • The average hourly wage for Disneyland Resort workers in real dollars dropped 15% from 2000 to 2017, from $15.80 to $13.36.
  • Almost three-quarters say that they do not earn enough money to cover basic expenses every month.
  • Disneyland employees worry about keeping a roof over their heads.
  • Over half of Disneyland Resort employees report concerns about being evicted from their homes or apartments.
  • More than one out of ten Disneyland Resort employees report having been homeless – or not having a place of their own to sleep – in the past two years.
  • Over half of workers who rent their housing are overcrowded – squeezing too many family members, roommates or even multiple families into a unit that is too small to accommodate the number of occupants.
Many Disneyland workers do not have reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food.
  • More than two-thirds (68%) of Disneyland Resort workers are food insecure.
  • Three-quarters (76%) of Disneyland Resort employees with children under 18 are food insecure.
Disneyland employees often struggle with erratic work schedules and underemployment.
  • Only 28% of Disneyland Resort employees report having the same schedule every week.
  • More than half (59%) of Disneyland Resort employees who are parents of young children say that their schedules at the park make it difficult to care for their families and children.
  • 64% of employees report that “the scheduling of my work at the Disneyland Resort makes it difficult to find a second job.”
Most Disneyland workers are mature adults and the job is their career and their livelihood.
  • 59% of workers are 30 to 54 years old and 18% are 55 and older.
  • The job at Disneyland is the primary source of income for 91% of workers, but full-time employment is provided to only 54% of workers.
Disneyland parents are among the most negatively impacted by the resort’s policies.
  • Among Disneyland Resort employees with children who pay for child care, 80% say they cannot make ends meet at the end of the month, 79% are food insecure, and 25% say that they are unlikely to be able to pay for housing that month.
Many Disneyland workers can’t afford healthcare or dental coverage.
  • 43% of employees report that in the past year they needed, but could not afford, dental care.
  • 37% of parents with young children said that in the past year there were times when they needed prescription medicine but could not afford it.
  • 36% of employees enrolled in the Disneyland Resort’s health insurance plan report that they have to give up other necessities to pay the monthly premiums.

 

Many Disneyland workers live in outlying communities in order to find housing they can afford.
  • 31% of Disneyland workers spend one or more hours commuting to work compared to only 4% of the total workforce in Los Angeles and Orange Counties.
  • 34% of Disneyland workers have moved within the past two years.
Raising the wages of Disneyland workers will be a powerful regional economic stimulus.
  • Raising the wage floor for Disneyland workers to $20 an hour will increase their collective buying power by $190 million a year.
  • When workers spend their increased pay for things such as housing, groceries, restaurant meals, health care, car maintenance, and child care it will generate $210 million more in sales at businesses in Anaheim and other communities where workers live.
Declining wages for Disneyland workers have weakened the regional economy.
  • There is a backlog of $1.4 billion in unpaid equitable wages that workers would have received if the wage level in 2000 had maintained a steady path to a wage floor of $20 in 2017.
  • Since 2000, the local economies where workers live have been diminished by $1.6 billion in lost sales that businesses would have made if workers had received equitable wages.
There is an extraordinary pay gap between the Walt Disney Company CEO and frontline workers at Disneyland.
  • In each of the three years from 2015 to 2017, the compensation received by Disney CEO Robert Iger was greater than the total pay of more than 2,000 Disneyland workers.
  • In 2018, Mr. Iger’s authorized compensation will equal the total pay of 9,284 Disneyland workers. His pay would make up 86% of the gap between the current wage and an equitable $20 wage for Disneyland workers.
  • When the wage floor for Disneyland workers is raised to $20 an hour, Mr. Iger’s authorized compensation for 2018 will equal the pay of 5,348 Disneyland workers.
Disneyland produces large profits and can afford to pay workers a living wage.
  • In the decade from 2007-2016, Disneyland’s attendance grew 21%, ticket prices grew 59%, and revenue grew 98%.
  • Each full-time-equivalent employee at Disneyland generates an average of $144,900 a year in revenue for the company.
  • It would require only 5.7% of park revenue to raise the wage floor for Disneyland workers to $20.
Findings are based on a survey of  Disneyland Resort employees that generated 5,000 responses, with supporting information from public datasets that describe these workers.

The survey, conducted in October 2017, revealed that while most Disneyland Resort employees – referred to as “cast members” by the company – are proud of the work they do, they feel undervalued, disrespected, and underpaid.

Disneyland Resort is a major profit center for the Walt Disney Company. Over the past decade, the number of visitors to Disneyland Resort has increased, the company has increased ticket prices, and overall revenues have grown dramatically. However, during that period, wages for Disneyland Resort workers have steadily declined in real terms. The rank-and-file employees who make Disneyland Resort such a profitable enterprise have not shared in the park’s success.

Survey respondents’ comments about their employment at Disneyland Resort:

“I have been working for Disneyland for almost 28 years and I make less than $20 an hour. If I didn’t have my husband to help with the bills and other life expenses, I would be living out of my car, or worse, homeless. Disney has increased admission tickets, food & merchandise has increased too. Yet, the front of line ‘Cast Members’ are struggling to pay their mortgage/rent, groceries, transportation and other daily/monthly bills. I am not asking to get rich by working for Disney, but I am asking for fair pay for fair work. I expect to be able to not worry, to not stress, about having food to eat and a roof over my head.”
– Merchandise host at Disneyland Resort for 28 years

“It’s really sad that after working 16 years for Disney I’m not making enough money to pay bills and when I do pay bills, there is not enough for other things like enjoying a nice meal with family or going on vacation. I sometimes stress on how I will pay rent, food, gas, and other expenses. I recently had to work Monday-Saturday and had 1 day off (Sunday,) just to pay bills.”
– Merchandise employee for 16 years

“I loved the work I did for the Disneyland Resort. It was one of the best, most fun, and rewarding (personally) jobs I’ve had. But making magic doesn’t pay the bills. It doesn’t feed my children, keep a roof over their heads, put clothes on their back, or keep the electricity on. How are we supposed to make magic when we can’t even afford to live?”
– Former employee who worked at the park for 3 years

“Disney has become a nightmare to work for. The long hours, lack of livable wages, and zero respect has got to stop.”
– Full-time worker

“After 11 years at the resort I make $12.02 as my base wage. Why should I drive 30 miles on the 91 and 5 freeways, almost always in heavy traffic, to earn a minimum wage?”
– Full-time merchandise host for 11 years

“Disneyland truly is a magical place for the guests but it’s a life struggle for all the employees. Something needs to be done or more and more people will lose time with their families, friends and even their very lives.”
– Full-time wardrobe worker
