MADEC Australia - Harvest Trail Services

Service Description

Whether growing vegetables, fruits, grains, seeds, nuts or flowers, Australian farms need workers all year round. MADEC manages 11 of the 16 horticultural regions in the Australian Government funded Harvest Trail Services initiative, as well as the national call centre - the National Harvest Trail Information Service. Expert officers connect job seekers with harvest jobs in specific crops, at no cost to workers or employers. We understand the complexity of the national harvest and help people from all backgrounds find not only short term work but employment that changes lives. Jobs range from harvest preparation to picking, pruning, packing and driving providing workers with an opportunity to earn while they build new skills, visit new places, and meet new people. And we support employers to meet legal requirements, take advantage of Harvest Trail-related government schemes, and provide opportunity, education and training for workers.
