Try the tips above: Channging the path outside the staffroom from regular path to staff path and manually moving the staff to just outside the staff room door. It helps for some people, but of course it's not a permanent fix :/

I haven't tried picking the staff up, wasn't finding how to last night. (did not try long) I put in 3 more staff facilities where about 20 staff were waiting. Assigned ALL of my vendors to a work area that contains all of the shops and 3 of the 5 staff rooms, and that allowed some of the staff to get to the rooms. Then I just hired replacement (and fired some of the lazy/confused ones)
I still have numerous staff needing the rooms, but tonight is another try.

I can confirm this bug too. First time I played franchise since beta but since the African elephants are amazing looking on this game I thought I’d participate in the challenge. So far I’m waiting on a female tho. Anyway the temporary fix works for me as well but obviously this needs to be addressed eventually. Other than that no real problems.
I do feel sorry for frontier tho as you can’t make any real progress if your bug fixing every update. The last update worked phenomenal for my machine honestly. I see some of the negative backlash planet zoo has tooken on some forums and see that player count is down. I’ll admit the game has been buggy at times but for me this game has been great and I enjoy playing. Although some points have been raised I still feel for the most part most of the criticism doesn’t do such a great game justice. Well hopefully frontier will find a way to get the game rolling smoothly and combat some of the criticism the game has received as I got to laugh at some of it really. I read a post on steam today mentioning how the game is unenjoyable but yet they mentioned they had over a thousand hrs playing lol. Totally contradicts itself no one plays a game for 1000 hrs they don’t like smh.
Maybe that's one reason why you only have encountered bugs "at times"? Could be worth thinking of it.
Many players, like me, had not been able to to play Franchise zoos for WEEKS because of zoos stuck in unloadable saves. Just one example.
And why should I dare to play this game atm when there's a very high probability that I have to manually move my 200+ staff because of a newly introduced bug? And why should I enjoy this fact?
I already addressed the newly introduced bug up at the top. I might have not been playing franchise but there’s plenty on here that do and some have mentioned the bugs the last two updates haven’t been that bad. I thought the unloadable save bug was fixed in the last update. As a matter of fact the only thing that stopped from enjoying it was the staff stuck on the path the rest seemed pretty playable really.
I'm the same, never had any game-breaking bugs as described by solely Franchise players. There have been some annoying ones, yes, but nothing that has ever stopped me from actually playing the game.
I basically play Franchise only.
When I start a zoo, i do get some notifications concerning staff not able to reach staff room but they disappear pretty fast.
I have no issues with staff not replenishing their energy but all staff buildings are connected with the staff path.
I always replace the normal path with the staff path, when it comes to staff/energy facilities.
Personally I think if you connect a staff building with a staff path, it should automatically pick the same path for the connection. (or did i miss an option ?
)
Maybe for some users replacing that small piece "normal path" right outside the facility could fix the issue?
In earlier comments that fixed it for 1 user.
And in a lot of screenshots it shows that people mix normal paths with staff paths. At least it's worth at try (for some)

I think all Staff-Buildings in my Zoo are connected with Staff-Paths including the small Piece at the Entrance and I have the Problem since the last Update
Oh well... it was worth a shot
I think it's more productive to try stuff... though, I agree with magnesiumHH with moving 200+ staff.
Maybe selling the staff room and immediately replace it with a new one.. (and ofcourse adding it to the appropriate workzones again!)
I wouldn't call it a fix but maybe helps narrowing down the options? (especially when you already have too much $, it shouldn't be a problem to try)
Have you tried re-attaching paths by first removing them and then replacing them?
Yeah it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't work
Tough luck in that case. I hope it can be resolved for you asap.
