EMN Flash #14 - 2020: Attracting and Protecting the Rights of Seasonal Workers in the EU and United Kingdom , Date: 2020.12.22, format: report, area: Authority

For many EU countries, seasonal workers from third countries are crucial to fill temporary, cyclical labour market needs.

What is the profile of seasonal workers from third countries in the EU? Do Member States and the UK place specific efforts on attracting seasonal workers to address labour market needs? What measures did Member States introduce to mitigate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic?

The EMN-Flash #14 – 2020 "How do EU Member States attract and protect the rights of seasonal workers?" provides a one-page overview of the key findings of the EMN synthesis report on "Attracting and Protecting the Rights of Seasonal Workers in the EU and United Kingdom". All in all 25 studies from EU Member States were included.

The German EMN study as well as a more detailed presentation of the results of the European comparative report may be found in the EMN Synthesis Report and in a more summarised version in the EMN Inform on this topic (see "Downloads" under "Further information").

The German study as well as the EMN Inform and Flash can be found as an English and German version.

This download is available in other languages, too.
