Metric: Presence/absence of evidence of culturally safe and appropriate local employment and training programs for existing and potential fishery employees. Indicates whether employment and training opportunities are designed to be culturally appropriate and inclusive.
-
Metric: Annual catch weight for each species (kg). Measures the total weight of each non-target species that is caught and retained by the fishery. This helps track how much of these species is being harvested over time.
-
Metric: Average percentage annual unemployment rate for the state/territory within which the fishery operates. Measures the proportion of people seeking work who are unable to find employment.
-
Metric: Presence/absence of provisions to enable cultural and customary fishing in the form of exemptions from standard fishing rules or formal recognition of rights to access in fishery-specific legislation or in the legislation of the jurisdiction (state/territory or Commonwealth) in which the fishery operates. Indicates whether laws or policies formally recognize and support cultural and customary fishing practices.
-
Metric: Annual average per capita annual consumption of seafood (kg/person). Measures the average amount of seafood consumed by each person in Australia annually.
-
Metric: Annual weight of discarded and/or dead byproduct species by species (kg). Measures the weight of retained non-target species that are caught but discarded instead of being kept. This indicator helps assess fishing efficiency and the impact of the fishery on these species.
-
Metric: Number of other licenced activities and/or use zones, leases, licences, or applications to use that interact with or are interacted with by the fishery. Measures how many other authorised activities, industries, or marine uses overlap with the fishery's area of operation.
-
Metric: Sensitivity level or score of fishery target species. Measures how vulnerable target species are to environmental pressures and change.
-
Metric: Score of workforce conditions contributing to potential modern slavery risk. Assesses workforce conditions that may increase or reduce the risk of labour exploitation.
-
Metric: Presence/absence of voluntary mitigation or avoidance strategies to prevent the capture of culturally significant species. Indicates whether fishers voluntarily adopt practices to reduce interactions with culturally significant species.
