Government spent more than £30,000 promoting flop Pick For Britain scheme

Final SAWS operator for 2021 UK fruit & veg harvest announced

By Henry Sandercock2021-05-06T14:30:00+01:00 Fruitful will look after about 6,000 of the 30,000 visa permits the government has issued for foreign workers coming to work on UK fruit & veg farms Recruiter Fruitful Jobs has become the fourth and final operator of the expanded Seasonal Agricultural Workers Scheme for 2021, the government has announced. The Herefordshire-based business has joined recent appointee AG Recruitment & Management and the two existing operators Concordia and Pro-Force in running this year’s scheme to hire temporary labourers for fruit & veg harvesting. It will look after about 6,000 of the 30,000 visa permits the government has issued for foreign workers coming to work on UK farms during the 2021 UK harvest season. Typically, workers from abroad make up the largest proportion of the edible horticulture sector’s temporary picking and packing workforce.

Pick for Britain scheme for UK-based farm workers scrapped

The government’s Pick for Britain scheme encouraged UK workers to apply for seasonal jobs The government has scrapped the Pick for Britain campaign aimed at recruiting UK-based workers for seasonal farm roles, the Grocer understands. Launched last year when Covid-19 left many foreign workers unable to reach the UK in time for the beginning of the harvest season, the campaign consisted of advertising and a website hosted by AHDB which directed UK workers to roles. While it attracted big interest – with tens of thousands of Brits applying for thousands of roles during the first national lockdown – and received major backing from Waitrose, relatively small numbers of recruits made it onto farms.
