Seasonal Agricultural Workers Scheme (SAWS)
SAWS is seen as an essential source of seasonal labour for the agriculture industry. The seasonal agricultural workers scheme provides reliable labour which farmers and growers know they will receive at the right time for the planting and harvesting seasons. In an industry where a considerable amount of illegal workers exist, farmers and growers are happily reassured that workers found through the seasonal agricultural workers scheme SAWS is both legitimate and reliable.
