Less Than Half of Disneyland Employees Have Returned

Disneyland, the region’s top employer before the pandemic, has yet to bring back more than half of its 32,000 local employees.

About 15,000 employees are currently working at the resort, local reports indicate.


The Anaheim resort, which includes two theme parks, three hotels and the Downtown Disney retail area, all closed on March 14, 2020, and reopened at the end of April 2021.


According to the Orange County Register, Disneyland expects to hire about 1,000 more employees this summer.
