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.

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.

Metric: Presence/absence of Indigenous leader roles in advisory and decision-making entities or formal provisions regarding fishery resources and spatial allocation. Indicates whether Indigenous representatives have formal roles in fishery governance and management decisions.

Metric: Explicit and active consideration of short- and long-term climate change in the governance arrangements, e.g. in the setting of total allowable effort/catch, stock assessment, or provisions to reduce the fishery's contribution to climate change. Indicates whether climate change risks are formally considered in fishery management decisions.

Metric: Average annual number of reportable safety incidents for the fishery in the past 5 years. Measures how many workplace safety incidents for persons on board a vessel (crew, skippers and/or passengers) are formally reported each year.

Metric: Annual mean chlorophyll level in the fishery jurisdiction (mg chlorophyll/m³). Measures the average level of phytoplankton in the water, which can provide an indication of ecosystem productivity.

Metric: Profit at full equity ($AUD). Profit at full equity in fisheries refers to the profitability of all fishing businesses assuming that the businesses have full equity in their operations, meaning there are no outstanding debts associated with the investment in capital. This indicates financial status and performance of the fishery, based on the average performance of all firms in a fishery.

Metric: Extent of forwards and backwards seafood product traceability for the fishery's target species. Measures how well seafood products from the fishery can be tracked through the supply chain from harvest to consumer.

Metric: Number of negotiated benefit sharing or access agreements in place between the fishery and Traditional Owners. Measures whether formal arrangements are in place to share benefits from a fishery with Traditional Owners

Metric: Percentage of waters zoned explicitly for commercial fishing in the fishery jurisdiction (state/territory or Commonwealth) of operation. Measures the proportion of jurisdictional waters that are designated for commercial fishing activities.
