"Kristjan Bragason, elected General Secretary of the European Federation of Food, Agriculture and Tourism Trade Unions (EFFAT) at its Zagreb congress in November 2019, has a lot of issues on his desk, covering everything from reform of the European Union's Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) to its "Farm to Fork" Strategy, not to mention collective bargaining, labour mobility, gender equality and occupational safety and health. The main objective of EFFAT is to defend the interests of the 25 million workers it represents. We met with Bragason to talk about working conditions in agriculture and the problems caused by massive pesticide use."
