The Roadmap for Improving Seafood Ethics - RISE
Guiding-Principles

The Roadmap Explained

The RISE Roadmap offers seafood companies a clear, step-by-step path to building and strengthening their social responsibility programs. 

Grounded in the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, the Roadmap supports companies in taking meaningful action to identify, prevent, and address risks to workers across their supply chains. It translates the principles of human rights due diligence into practical guidance that seafood businesses can apply at any stage of their journey.

Through six interconnected steps, RISE helps companies develop systems that are not only effective, but also adaptive. Whether a company is just beginning to formalize its approach or is looking to refine existing practices, the Roadmap provides a strategic foundation to detect, prevent, mitigate, and remediate negative human rights impacts in their supply chains.
