Earlier this week, senior executives announced that they would take salary cuts to offset the impact of the pandemic. --Numerous divisions are expected to be hit, including Disney’s film empire, which comprises myriad labels as well as marketing and distribution and a host of operational units. Since the company closed its $71.3 billion acquisition of most of 21st Century Fox last year, there have been staff reductions in multiple divisions. --Workers United Local 50 president Christopher Duarte, who represents food and drink castmembers at Disneyland, tells THR the furloughs may impact non-union hourly employees, which he estimated at around 10,000 workers for the Anaheim park. Disneyland executives are currently in talks with the union on how to proceed since union workers are protected from furloughs, Duarte says.
