Labor of Love: How Do You Compare with Peers on Ag Worker Benefits?

Carol Miller By Carol Miller|July 11, 2023

In a world where minimum-wage jobs come with a lot of benefits growers can’t always offer, like flexible hours and air conditioning, the benefits you do offer become more important.  

The most desirable benefits for workers, according to Forbes, are: 

  1. Employer-covered health insurance
  2. Life insurance
  3. Retirement plans or pension
  4. Mandatory paid time off
  5. Mental health assistance

In the 2023 State of the Vegetable Industry Survey, we asked what the vegetable industry currently offers by way of benefits for workers. Scroll through the slideshow above to see how you answered.
