Hell for Seasonal Workers in Croatia: Ten People in One Room, Filth and Inhumane Treatment!
Think working on the Adriatic coast is a dream job? Think again! Seasonal workers in Croatia, especially in Novalja, are living a nightmare. Imagine ten people crammed into one room, filthy, inadequate conditions, no air conditioning, and a total lack of care from employers.
Shocking Living Conditions
Workers have shared horrifying photos and descriptions on social media showing accommodations that look more like prisons than temporary homes. Ten people in one room, dirt everywhere, poor ventilation, and no basic hygiene. Some have already quit, while others decided to speak out publicly.
Where is the Government?
While tourists enjoy the beaches, workers suffer humiliation and injustice. Employers clearly cut corners everywhere, including on human dignity. Seasonal workers wonder if they will even get paid, if they will be scammed, and how they will survive in these catastrophic conditions.
One Worker Snapped!
In Novalja, known as one of the most popular party destinations on the Adriatic, one worker finally said “enough” — quit his job and before that posted everything on the Facebook group “Job, Sea, Experiences.” His photos and descriptions shocked many and sparked a wave of comments.
Seasonal Workers Are Not Commodities!
This is not just a problem of one place or one employer. It’s a systemic issue showing how little the work and effort of people who keep tourism running is valued. While prices for services and food rise, conditions for workers remain catastrophic.
What’s Next?
Will authorities react or will it all end with social media outrage? Will employers finally face consequences? Seasonal workers deserve better — not just pay, but decent living and working conditions.
If you’ve ever worked a seasonal job or know someone who has, take a look at these stories and think — is this really normal? Or is it time for change? What do you think? Is this just the tip of the iceberg or a full-blown disaster? Drop a comment, let the workers’ voices be heard!
