Disneyland workers won a 31% pay rise after a 4-month campaign and a vote to strike

• Thousands of Disneyland workers accepted a new offer from the park, scoring a significant pay rise.
• The deal provides for hourly wages to increase from $19.90 to $26 over three years — a 31% bump.
• Park workers pressured their bosses with rallies and a threat to strike.

After months of negotiations that nearly led to a strike, thousands of Disneyland workers agreed to accept a new contract.

The deal mandates an increase in the park's minimum wage from a previous $19.90 to a final $26 after three years, an increase of 31%.

The new contract grants most of that hike straight away, boosting the wage to $24 immediately.
