Informationsseite über Saisonarbeit in Deutschland von der Bundesagentur für Arbeit

Rationale and aims

Informationsseite über Saisonarbeit in Deutschland von der Bundesagentur für Arbeit was developed by the German Federal Employment Agency in 2021, following a bilateral cooperation agreement between Germany and Georgia on migration and mobility. The initiative provides clear and accessible information on the rights and obligations of seasonal workers in Germany. It aims to support seasonal workers from the EU‑27, EFTA countries, Georgia and Moldova by offering a single online source of practical information relevant to legal seasonal employment.

Additionally, it links to counselling services and a hotline of the International Placement Service for additional assistance.

Target groups and eligibility

The website is intended for seasonal workers from the EU‑27, EFTA countries, Georgia and the Republic of Moldova who are legally allowed to undertake seasonal work in Germany, across all sectors. It is also relevant for employers of seasonal workers seeking information on their obligations. Access is open, with no eligibility criteria, and the website is publicly available and free of charge.
