Working group urges Thailand to address labor abuses in wake of GSP suspension
In the wake of the US government suspending billions of dollars in trade preferences for Thailand due to worker rights issues, organizations participating in the Seafood Working Group released a statement on Human Rights Day strongly urging the Thai government to undertake the necessary reforms to have the trade benefits reinstated.
The 23 organizations also urged global companies buying seafood from Thailand to ensure that workers’ rights are fully protected in their supply chains.
