seasonal workers and other migrant workers – Ethnic Council of Shepparton and District

Farm workers, backpackers, seasonal workers and other migrant workers tell us they are commonly paid well below the minimum wage, due to unfair piece rates set by farmers and their labour hire companies.

Get on board with our fair piece rates for farm workers campaign – sign the petition to change the laws to make sure that farm workers receive a guaranteed minimum hourly rate regardless of the piece rate.
