A seasonal worker is someone who moves temporarily to take a job tied to a particular season—such as harvesting, tourism, or holiday retail—working for a limited period before returning to their home community, often under visas or contracts that explicitly end when the season does. A migrant worker more broadly is any person who relocates, internally or across borders, to find employment and may stay for a long-term or permanent period; migrants seek ongoing work or settlement, work in a wider range of sectors, and may pursue integration, family reunification, or permanent legal status. In short, seasonal work describes the short, cyclical timing and purpose of the job, while migrant work describes the act of moving for employment and can be temporary or permanent; seasonal workers who cross borders are one type of migrant, but not all migrants are seasonal.
