Brazil poultry company enters student work placement agreement

Brazilian company União Avícola, part of Brasil Foods, has entered an agreement with the two teaching organizations Pirâmide de Tangará da Serra and the Universidade Estadual de Mato Grosso, allowing their students to participate in work placements on the company’s production line. The students will be able to put into practice what they have learned in their programs of study, increasing their poultry knowledge and technical abilities, which should increase their chances of securing work once they enter the employment market, the company says. The placements will be monitored by staff within União Avícola and evaluated by the two teaching organizations.
