Disney has reached a deal with one of the major unions at the Walt Disney World Resort ahead of their return to work. The news comes from a statement from the Service Trades Council Union (STCU), which represents approximately 43,000 workers at Walt Disney World Resort. It includes safety guidelines for social distancing, cleaning, and mandatory masks for both Cast Members and guests.
According to the statement, when Walt Disney World Resort reopens there will be the following safety protocols in place:
The news of the agreement comes ahead of the phased reopening of Disney Springs on May 20th. The following week, on May 27th, Disney owned establishments at Disney Springs will be reopening. At this time, it is unknown when Walt Disney World Resort will be reopening. Shanghai Disneyland reopened on May 11th and continues to be the only Disney theme park operating globally. As of today, Florida Ron DeSantis has announced that Florida theme parks may submit their reopening plans to the state for consideration and review. This is one step closer to theme parks reopening in Florida but currently, a timeline for that is unknown.
