"Class Action Lawsuit Alleges Disney Underpaid Hotel Workers"
Disney is facing a class action lawsuit for allegedly underpaying maintenance workers at its Southern California hotels, with the lawsuit claiming workers were forced to pay for their own tools while not being paid the required double minimum wage and correct overtime rate. The complaint also alleges that Disney failed to provide proper rest and meal periods and accurate wage statements. This comes amid a growing cost of living and poverty crisis affecting workers in the entertainment industry, with a discrimination lawsuit against Disney for systematically underpaying women also making headlines.
