Disney World To Compensate Cast Members For Getting Vaccinated
Disney World is looking to incentivize cast members to get the COVID-19 vaccination according to a recent Facebook post by a union representing Disney Employees. According to Unite Here Local 362! Disney will be paying Cast Members for four hours of work for getting the COVID-19 vaccine.
It’s time for Our Shot!
Disney is paying four (4) hours for getting the vaccine! More information on how to access this benefit will be shared later this week.
Stay safe, and stay strong!

For those unfamiliar, Unite Here represents Cast Members that work in attractions and custodial roles at Disney World. As you can see from the official union release above, in order to qualify, employers must be vaccinated between January 1, 2021 thru September 30, 2021 in order to qualify for the incentive. It would appear that those already vaccinated should be eligible for the stipend.
This is one way for Disney World to promote vaccinations without mandating that all employees get vaccinated.
