Disneyland recently reminded its cast members (employees) about the importance of following the Disney Look dress code. This code ensures a professional and unified appearance across the park. While the guidelines have been relaxed in recent years to promote diversity and inclusion, some items may still not be part of the approved look.
Cast members who wear unapproved items may be asked to remove them. Repeated violations could lead to verbal warnings or further disciplinary action.
The largest union at Disneyland, representing over 13,000 Cast Members (employees) including ride operators, store clerks, custodians, candy makers, and more, has been negotiating a new contract with Disney since April. Their current contract expired on June 16th.
