Migrant labour boost

SCOTLAND S soft fruit sector is heavily dependent on experienced migrant labour THERE WILL be up to 30,000 UK visas available for next year’s fruit and veg pickers, the UK government has announced. However, this still falls short of the 70,000 or so migrant workers that the industry employed under European Union freedom of movement. The announcement extends the Seasonal Workers Pilot, originally launched in 2019, and expands it from 10,000 to 30,000 visas available for those wanting to come and work on UK farms for a period of up to six months. With an eye on that 70,000 figure, the UK government has also announced that it will build on this year’s Pick for Britain campaign and actively promote the recruitment and retention of domestic seasonal workers in 2021.
