The Responsible Fishing Vessel Standard enables fishing operations to provide assurance of decent working conditions and operational best practice from catch to shore.
Today's marketplace needs the confidence that their seafood supply chains are free of human rights abuses; that fishing crews are treated fairly, trained appropriately, and are working in safe conditions with payment, meals, and rest time provided. The Responsible Fishing Vessel Standard (RFVS) provides these assurances.
Thank you to our engagement partners who have supported the RFVS development through participation in the Oversight Board, Technical Working Groups, or peer reviewers.
