Seasonal employment contracts in Spain 2022 – new jobs



Seasonal employment contracts in Spain 2022 – new jobs
In the context of employment with a labor
contract in Spain in 2020, the Moroccan Ministry of Employment and Professional
Integration announced that the Spanish agricultural sector needs about 17,000
Moroccan workers to harvest strawberry fruit through seasonal work contracts in
the Spanish province of Welba, in the context of bringing Moroccan female
workers to contribute to agricultural work in the year 2022.


A ministry press statement said that during
its meeting with a Moroccan delegation in the Spanish city of Welba, Spain
promised that the Moroccan authorities will reach work contracts during January
2022 and that Moroccan workers will start work in the month of March.


Spain’s farms are used to bringing workers
from abroad every year, but many of these farms begin to employ workers,
especially in order to contribute to harvesting agricultural crops.
Participation in this year’s fruit harvest campaign in Spain is an opportunity
for all qualified Moroccan female candidates to work on Spain’s farms.


This hiring process was developed according to
a well-organized system where priority was given to women. The National
Employment Promotion Agency (ANAPEC), a Moroccan public agency that manages
employment and mediation between Spanish businessmen and women, defends this
“positive discrimination” that involves the privilege of women with
dependent children, especially if they are widowed or divorced.


In this way, ANAPEC tries to “break the
cycle of exclusion” in which rural women live in Morocco, and more if she
is a mother, said Effi Abdel Moneim El Madani, the agency’s director general.


Madani also reminded of the standards that
Spanish entrepreneurs demanded: young women (25 to 40 years old), with experience
in this field and in good health due to the requirements of physical work.


Women working in strawberry fields will earn
37 euros per day and in Morocco you will not earn more than 50 dirhams, that
is, less than 5 euros. Above all, with the money she will earn in Spain, nearly
3,000 euros during four months of work, she can live a few months in her
country and feed her family.


The number of seasonal workers who come to
Spain annually is approximately 40,000 in the agricultural fields alone, and
the duration of seasonal work contracts usually lasts for 6 months. Most of the
seasonal jobs in the agricultural sector in Spain are active in the
fruit-harvest season.


Spanish peasants prefer to attract workers
from outside Spain, because they find that the cost of the agricultural product
is low because of the low wages of labor coming from Morocco, for example,
compared to the wages required by Spanish workers. We can say that the seasonal
wages in Spain are ok, given that the farmer owners provide free transportation
to the workplace and they also provide housing in most cases.
