Berry Farms Under Fire for Labor Exploitation | Adelaide News
Description
A damning parliamentary report has accused labor hire firms in Coffs Harbour and the Nambucca Valley of exploiting migrant berry pickers, with allegations stretching to modern slavery, debt bondage, and even sexual servitude. The report reveals a web of collusion between farms and contractors, including claims that worker dorms were used as illegal brothels. With NSW regulators already launching surprise inspections and the Anti-Slavery Commissioner demanding urgent action, the spotlight is now on whether these powerful industry players will be held accountable — and whether the government will act before more workers are harmed.
