State Court of Appeal panel rules the resort illegally skirted a 2018 living wage measure approved by Anaheim voters.
Disney cast members could see their pay increased to nearly $20 an hour following a California appellate court ruling this week that found the resort illegally skirted a 2018 voter-approved living wage measure.
with Anaheim that use hotel taxes to pay debt on a parking structure for Disneyland visitors, those agreements don’t constitute a tax rebate or a subsidy as described in the ballot measure. “Consequently, Disney receives a city subsidy within the meaning of the living wage ordinance and it is therefore obligated to pay its employees the designated minimum wages,” the appellate panel ruled. “Thus, we reverse the trial court’s order granting Disney and Sodexo’s motion for summary judgment.”
The ruling is a monumental victory for Disney workers, who have been fighting for better wages and benefits, said attorney Richard McCracken, who represented the plaintiffs in the lawsuit and subsequent appeal.
