During these difficult times for Victorian vegetable growers, AUSVEG VIC has put together a list of industry resources which can be utilised to help improve on-farm health, employee management and a first point of call if you are experiencing a COVID crisis.
AUSVEG VIC also encourage all Victorian vegetable growers to create a personalised company document (preferably by a HR professional) to ensure company employees are following the necessary health and safety practices to mitigate unnecessary risks.
