AB  - What this research is about
This research looked at ways seasonal and vulnerable workers in regional Australia can be better housed. It provides a policy framework for state and industry stakeholders to ensure a healthy, safe and productive workforce.

Why this research is important
Many businesses in regional Australia rely on seasonal workers, including workers from migration schemes. These workers help regional areas stay economically competitive.

Changes in regional housing markets have greatly increased the cost of housing. As a result, a lack of affordable and available housing often places seasonal and vulnerable workers in inappropriate and poor-quality housing. This also makes it hard for businesses to attract and retain workers in regional parts of Australia.
