New report just out!
We are thrilled to share the “Study on the Working Conditions of Farm Employees in the EU Agriculture Sector” — carried out for the European Commission’s DG AGRI.
The study was commissioned by DG AGRI to provide the very first EU-wide baseline for assessing the new social conditionality in the 2023-27 Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).
What’s inside?
- Mixed-methods research covering all 27 Member States, 10 in-depth case studies and extensive stakeholder consultations.
- Key findings: persistent occupational-safety risks, widespread undeclared and precarious work, especially for seasonal and migrant workers; enforcement remains patchy due to limited resources and fragmented administration.
Why it matters: the insights will help the Commission and national authorities track progress, design fairer interventions and make sure CAP payments reward farms that respect decent-work standards.
