Spain hosts many seasonal workers including Moroccans
Official data released by the Spanish Ministry of Integration, Social Security, and Immigration indicate that the circular migration program with Morocco in 2025 benefited more than 25,000 workers from 17 countries, who took advantage of seasonal job opportunities within the Spanish labor market. Morocco accounted for approximately 81% of the total, reflecting the level of cooperation between Rabat and Madrid in managing migration and meeting the needs of the Spanish labor market, particularly in the agricultural sector which relies heavily on seasonal labor. The system, known as the "GECCO" program, emphasizes the recruitment of workers under seasonal contracts that ensure legal residence and a commitment to return to their home countries after the work period ends. Additionally, projects like "Wafira 2" support worker training, improve working conditions, and facilitate reintegration.
