It aims to improve access to seasonal employment and to support informed participation in the labour market by offering relevant information on rights and working conditions.

Support offered

The service also offers information on wages, social benefits, working conditions and relevant legal frameworks. Additionally, it provides practical guidance for seasonal workers and access to information on paid agricultural courses.
