Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
Most companies are failing to take effective, practical action to stamp out slavery from global canned tuna supply chains. A small cluster of leaders are making strides and translating human rights policies into practice. In general, company policy is not supported by concrete action and most need to lift their game on human rights due diligence and develop greater supply chain visibility, beyond tier 1 suppliers. The risks of egregious human rights abuses in the fishing industry are extremely high. The fact that 15 companies (nearly half) operating in this high-risk sector did not respond to us is concerning. Companies must step up their efforts to engage on human rights. We need to see far more collaboration between brands and external stakeholders, especially workers and their unions, to ensure companies develop, implement and embed meaningful and effective responses to end modern slavery at sea.
