Fair Trade USA seafood
Fisheries and fish farms are checked for how fishers, crews and workers are treated, and an extra premium goes to fishing communities.
How it counts towards a grade
- Supportive: it counts in its favour but isn't proof on its own
What it is
Fair Trade USA certifies wild fisheries and fish farms. Fishers, crews and processing workers must have safe conditions, freedom from forced and child labour and the right to organise, checked by independent auditors, and buyers pay a premium that the fishers decide how to spend.
What it checks
- Crews' and workers' conditions, including forced and child labour
- Independent audits of the fishery or farm
- A premium paid to fishers and workers
What it doesn't
- It doesn't require a full living wage
- Only a small number of fisheries are certified
