I. Ethical Standards

B. Responsibility to Cast Members and Employees
Our Cast Members and employees are the cornerstone of our magic.

The Company and its management are committed to treating all Cast Members and employees with fairness, dignity and respect. We strive to provide our Cast Members and employees with a challenging, exciting and fulfilling environment.

Professional Development
We are committed to having our Cast Members and employees develop and advance professionally in a manner consistent with their abilities. Although difficult decisions may arise in hiring, evaluating performance, promoting, disciplining or terminating Cast Members and employees, the Company expects such responsibilities to be carried out with fairness, discretion and respect for privacy, as well as compassion for the individuals involved.

Safety
The Company is committed to providing a safe working environment for all its Cast Members and employees.

Diversity
We seek to be multicultural, tapping the unique talents and potential of every member of our diverse work force. Our goals are to:

  • Attract and sustain a work force that reflects our guests and customers, business partners, shareholders, labor markets and communities in which we do business; and
  • Maintain a workplace that reflects open opportunity, where everyone is advantaged by their potential and no one is disadvantaged by their belonging to a particular group.

We are committed to these goals for their own sake, but we also believe that diversity is the best way to develop superior products and services.

Teamwork and Communications
We are committed to providing open, free and effective channels of communication among Cast Members and employees, and between Cast Members, employees and the Company's management. Not only does open communications foster teamwork and facilitate a healthy working environment, but such free and open channels, both within departments and divisions, as well as between divisions, promote synergy and enable the Company as a whole to realize greater potential than the sum of its individual businesses.

Respect for the Individual
We are committed to providing a work environment in which all Cast Members and employees are afforded the respect that they deserve, free of any discrimination or harassment. No discrimination on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, age, marital status, covered veteran status, disability, pregnancy, or any other basis prohibited by applicable law will be allowed. Further, the Company expects Cast Members and employees to treat each other with the same dignity and respect that they expect from the Company.
