The 2021 Seasonal Labour Report summarises how the kiwifruit industry responded to labour shortages during a period of rapid growth. It outlines the increasing worker demand, the mix of New Zealand and international labour, and the steps employers took to improve pay, conditions, training, and transport. The report also highlights challenges such as limited access to overseas workers, rising costs, and accommodation pressures. These insights support NZKGI’s ongoing Labour Attraction Strategy and future workforce planning.
