WHERE WE OPERATE


Great Britain

The need for agricultural workers is massively outstripping current supply.

Businesses in fresh food production are essential to #FeedTheNation. We
encourage anyone in the UK to apply for the seasonal agricultural work to help
#FeedTheNation.

We also recruit experienced tractor drivers, spray operators and crop husbandry
staff from the United Kingdom.



The United Kingdom

Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan is bordering with Russia. It is a former Soviet Union Republic.
Russian is the second language.

About 16% of the state's workforce is employed in the agriculture. Over 31,000
agricultural enterprises and 32,000 small farms operate in the country.

47% of population live in villages and the SWS programme is seen as a fantastic
opportunity, especially amongst young Kazakhstanis.

Kazakhstan

Bulgaria

Bulgarian nationals have a strong association with seasonal agricultural work in
the UK as they were one of the two countries in the SAWS scheme during 2007 to
2014.

Many farms have employed Bulgarian nationals for many years and are looking to
supplement their loyal returnees with new workers from Bulgaria with EU Settled
and Pre-Settled Status.




Bulgaria

Kyrgyzstan

Kyrgyzstan is a mountainous agrarian country. The agriculture in Kyrgyzstan is
one of the leading sectors of the economy. Russian language is widely used in
the country. 

The share of agricultural sector in the whole of countries economy is 24%. 

About 65% of the country's population lives in rural areas. Many young people
are looking for a temporary job abroad due to the high unemployment levels at
home.

the largest island country in the world and is the largest country in Southeast

HOW WE IDENTIFY GOOD PEOPLE FOR WORK


WE SEE EACH CANDIDATE FACE TO FACE

On recruitment stage we spend 60 minutes on average in phone, group and personal
communication with each applicant. 

Our recruiters are trained to use psychological profiling techniques to
interview candidates in consideration of work ethics, stress reaction and
immigration laws.



WE KEEP PEOPLE'S EXPECTATIONS ALIGNED

We provide realistic picture of working abroad as a seasonal worker. 

We explain employers' expectations, demonstrate photos of the actual work and
accommodation.   



WE REJECT PEOPLE WITH CONFLICT TENDENCIES


Arriving to a different country, working, living and communicating with an
employer can be stressful for a migrant worker. 

This is why we observe people in groups and simulate mild provocative situations
to reveal reaction to mild stress. We only accept candidates with low reaction
level to mild stress situations. 



WE LOVE CANDIDATES WHO PLAY TEAM SPORTS


We found that people who play sport adapt to agricultural work faster and
easier. They have higher motivation and well developed communication skills.

CUSTOMERS' PROCESS


STEP BY STEP

We made our process simple, fast and effective.



STEP 1. GET IN TOUCH

Get in touch to discuss how AGRI-HR can help your business to gain great people
to harvest your crop and pack your produce efficiently.


STEP 2. SIGNING A SUPPLY AGREEMENT

A signed agreement in place between AGRI-HR and the Employer is a condition of
the GLAA. AGRI-HR cannot supply workers without a signed agreement.


STEP 3. DESKTOP AUDIT

Every farm will have a desktop audit. We go through great detail to establish
working and living conditions for the seasonal workers.



STEP 4. MEETING / FARM AUDIT

We really like to meet our customers in person. Farms will also have an audit
conducted by a 3rd party. This is a Seasonal Worker Scheme requirement.


We work very hard for our farming and fresh produce customers and applicants
alike to ensure crops can be grown, harvested and packed efficiently and for the
applicants to enjoy a rewarding period of employment in agriculture.
