Objectives

The strategic partnership of the AgriWork project consisted of three trade unions, a European umbrella organisation and four trade union-related advisory institutions. The partners and associated partners have a wide range of best practices for counselling and training mobile workers. These instruments and tools were presented, discussed and documented transnationally as part of the project. This took place in 4 online seminars on the topics: Digital information and counselling; working conditions; occupational health and safety, as well as discrimination and sexual violence and labour and social law. For further dissemination, the tools were compiled in a handbook for counselling mobile workers (digital and in 6 languages). The aim is to strengthen the individual multipliers and increase the efficiency of their counselling work by participating in the activities and using the new training materials. At the same time, seasonal workers, as an indirect target group, will receive improved counselling through the use of new innovative methods. In particular, the use of digital information and counselling tools will lead to greater digital skills and improved participation of seasonal workers.
