      So one area might be based on England while another one is based on Spain etc.

The entertainment industry has different hiring standards than other industries. It is easier and legal to practice different forms of discrimination if a company can make a strong case that they are in the entertainment industry. This is why Disney calls most of the park employees "cast members." It allows the company to adhere to a different set of standards in hiring and firing as opposed to a regular store or restaurant.
