    Metric: Annual number of threatened, endangered, and protected species (TEPS) mortalities. Measures the number of threatened, endangered, or protected animals that die each year as a result of fishing activities. This indicator helps assess the fishery’s impact on vulnerable species.

  • Categories  

    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.

  • Categories  

    Metric: Impact score of fishery activity on habitat quality as determined by gear type. Measures the potential impact of fishing gear on marine habitats such as the seafloor, reefs, or other underwater environments. Higher scores indicate greater potential effects on habitat quality.

  • Categories  

    Metric: Percentage of macro-plastic waste that is recycled, recovered, or re-used by the fishery annually. Measures the proportion of plastic waste generated by the fishery that is recycled, recovered, or reused instead of being disposed of. This indicator reflects how effectively the fishery manages plastic waste.

  • Categories  

    Metric: Annual amount of macro-plastic use (kg). Measures the total weight of large plastic materials used by the fishery each year, such as nets, ropes, packaging, and other equipment. This indicator helps track the fishery’s reliance on plastic products.

  • Categories    

    Metric: Presence/absence of resource allocation policy or statute in the fishery jurisdiction (state/territory or Commonwealth) of operation. Indicates whether formal policies or laws exist to determine how access to fishery resources is allocated.

  • Categories  

    Metric: Presence/absence of regulatory requirements in the fishery's jurisdiction aiming to mitigate bycatch, including the bycatch of protected species. Indicates whether fishery regulations require measures to reduce unintended catch of non-target or protected species.

  • Categories  

    Metric: Presence/absence of regulatory requirements in the fishery's jurisdiction related to the reporting of interactions with protected species. Indicates whether fishers must report interactions with protected species.

  • Categories  

    Metric: Presence/absence of voluntary codes of practices and/or initiatives to ensure the physical and psychological safety and health of workers. Indicates whether additional voluntary measures are in place to support worker wellbeing and safety.

  • Categories  

    Metric: Presence/absence of voluntary measures in place to mitigate bycatch, including bycatch of protected species. Indicates whether fishers voluntarily adopt practices to reduce unintended catch.
