IFA for cultural integration
The Association’s President John Dillon last week launched a booklet, Equality and Migrant Workers on the Farm, to provide a basic resource to farmers and others in the agricultural sector to effectively manage the cultural diversity brought by migrants to the farm workplace.
Mr Dillon said, “Cultural diversity is relatively new to Ireland and the farm environment provides the same challenges that exist to cultural integration as any other workplace. By producing this booklet and being involved in Anti Racist Workplace Week, IFA is highlighting the good examples of cultural integration that exist in the agri-sector and encouraging best practice in farm businesses.”
