Disney furloughs 100,000 theme park and hotel workers amid coronavirus shutdown
On Monday, Disney furloughed 100,000 theme park and hotel workers — roughly half the Disney theme park and resort workforce — because of the coronavirus crisis. Hardest hit was the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, where 70,000 workers will now have to rely on the state's much-criticized Unemployment Assistance program, which pays just $275 a week for 12 weeks, among the lowest rates in the U.S.
