Abstract

Farmworkers’ right to health has been difficult to be guaranteed for a long time, and this problem became more serious during the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose of this review is to explore the reasons why farmworker’s right to health cannot be guaranteed, and give feasible solutions. Farmworkers have made great contributions to the world economy and food production, but their employment and legal status make them in the marginal zone of the agricultural economy. The low degree of convergence with the relevant provisions of international law and the relative lack of legal aid for agricultural groups inhibit farmworkers from seeking medical services and related legal services. Emphasizing the legal status and legal resources protection of farmworkers through domestic legislation, further strengthening the cooperation between domestic law and international law, and developing public welfare legal consultation websites at the technical level will help to improve the protection of Farmworkers’ right to health.
