Legoland Florida Resort is eliminating 519 jobs as it transitions food and beverage services in January to Aramark Corp., which will take the affected employees on.

The Polk County resort disclosed the move in a letter posted to the state’s WARN database Nov. 3.

According to the letter sent to the state to meet federal Worker Adjustment Retraining and Notification notice requirements, employees working at the resort will keep their current positions and pay. Employees who qualify for benefits will see no break in coverage.
