Risky business
Georgian cone pickers lead a dangerous life. As shown in the video, it has been customary to pick cones from trees as tall as 30 meters without the use of safety equipment. Fatal accidents have been ample. The Fair Trees employers want to change that. Georgian cone pickers employed by Fair Trees will receive a safety training course and safety equipment complying with the highest European standards.
Fair Trees: Setting new standards
This video shows how Fair Trees employers provide the best possible safety equipment. The Fair Trees Fund gives top priority to better wages and working conditions for the cone pickers.
