A clear path toward environmental sustainability and social responsibility

Five global seafood certification and ratings programs working together to coordinate our tools and increase our impact so that more seafood producers move along a clear path toward environmental sustainability and social responsibility.

Featured Project: Worker Engagement in Seafood

The Collaboration is working in partnership with Issara Institute to help responsible seafood companies establish and run effective worker engagement mechanisms. Over two years, this initiative will identify options for improving credible, ongoing worker engagement mechanisms, which include processes for grievance and remediation, in the seafood sectors of India, Indonesia, Taiwan, Thailand and Vietnam.


Featured Project: Human Rights Abuses and Risks

The Sustainable Seafood Data Tool now summarizes data on human rights abuses in the seafood industry. The tool’s Human Rights Abuses and Risks component consolidates information from credible government and civil society organization sources for 96 countries representing 99% of global seafood production.

How do certification and ratings work together?

When we started working together, we received feedback that the differences and similarities between certification and ratings programs were not well understood. In response, we developed a brief that clarifies our complementary roles and how we fit into responsible sourcing policies.
