"Aided both by its location and the policies of successive governments over 30 years, Chile has become one of the main exporters of fruit to Europe. It's a very lucrative business, above all because so many seasonal female workers are employed in insecure working conditions that give them serious health problems including musculoskeletal pain and agrochemical poisoning. The testimony of four women brings to the fore the hidden harm that the Chilean fruit industry does to women workers' health."
