Progress in 2023

Activities delivered by the Taskforce last year included updates to the Just Good Work worker information app, mapping of existing grievance routes available to workers, development of a common Scheme Operator assessment methodology piloted with Pro-Force, development and delivery of seven regional grower roadshows and a mid-season webinar – supported by a grower good practice toolkit, mapping comparisons of legislation relating to recruitment fees and related costs in different countries’ seasonal agricultural migration schemes, and work to refine common policy asks for active engagement with relevant government departments…

Now, thanks to funding from 10 major retailers* and four Scheme Operators**, the Taskforce can confirm a programme of work for the 2024 season including:…

  • A series of seven regional grower roadshows in February and March which will build on the content of 2023…
  • Further development to increase the scope and adoption of the Just Good Work worker information app.
  • An economic modelling of the Employer Pays Principle in UK horticulture with potential implementation models. ..
