At least 72 of the 162 locations had 5 or more employees on site, the headcount at which Colorado SecureSavings starts to apply. The law counts all of an employer's Colorado employees, not one location, so treat this as a local indicator.

Across Grand County, the largest industry by employment is accommodation and food services (2,046 jobs), and private leisure and hospitality employment ran from 2,571 in May 2024 to 3,791 in January 2024.
45 of the 162 business locations in Winter Park's ZIP codes are in accommodation and food services or arts, entertainment and recreation, the leisure and hospitality industries where staffing levels tend to change with the season. Colorado counts employees under C.R.S. 24-54.3-102(3). The rule reads: “employed five or more employees at any time during the previous calendar year”.
