Minister Charles Jr Reveals Startling Crisis: Jamaican Workers Deserting Canada’s Agricultural Program!

In a gripping revelation, Minister of Labour and Social Security Pearnel Charles Jr
discloses alarming concerns about the surge in Jamaican workers abandoning the Seasonal
Agricultural Workers Programme (SAWP) in Canada. The shocking trend threatens the livelihoods
of hundreds and the future of the program itself.

Charles Jr urgently calls on Members of Parliament to address this critical issue with
their constituents, emphasizing the negative impact on opportunities for Jamaican workers.

He highlights the risk of disgruntled employers, pointing out that a single dissatisfied
employer could jeopardize spaces for 800 Jamaican workers.

The sensitization session for MPs underscores the vital role they play in the pre-selection
process for the Farm Work Programme. The minister notes that the SAWP, once exclusive to
Jamaica and Canada, are now highly competitive, involving other countries like Mexico, Barbados,
and Trinidad and Tobago.
