According to a BBC report on the 20th, Disney employees are about to start a new round of labor negotiations with the company. Four unions representing 14,000 Disney employees voted to authorize a strike during the negotiation season. Many Disney employees complained to the media about their meager wages and difficult livelihoods.

The BBC revealed the difficult life of Ms. Carranza. Last summer, she worked as a night shift manager at Disneyland in Orange County, California, earning less than $21 per hour, and could not afford the local summer housing rent, so she had to do heavy and trivial work at Disneyland every night and sleep in her car during the day.

According to the survey data, 73% of Disney employees said that their monthly income was not enough to make ends meet, and one-third said they had encountered housing problems in the past year. Due to low wages, some Disney employees have to work extra jobs, but the frequent changes in the working schedule of Disneyland also affect their part-time jobs.

One employee said: "Without us, there would be no Disney magic. We need Disney to pay us a salary that can support ourselves!" (Zhen Xiang)▲
