Abstract

The Work in Fishing Convention, 2007, of the International Labour Organization (ILO) defines commercial fishing as all fishing operations, including fishing operations on rivers, lakes or canals, with the exception of subsistence fishing and recreational fishing. Fishers are defined to mean every person employed or engaged in any capacity or carrying out an occupation on board any fishing vessel, including persons working on board who are paid on the basis of a share of the catch, but excluding pilots, naval personnel, other persons in the permanent service of a government, shore-based persons carrying out work aboard a fishing vessel and fisheries observers.
