The Fostering Accountability in Recruitment for Fishery Workers Project (FAIR Fish) is an effort to reduce forced labor and human trafficking in the seafood-processing sectors of Thailand. The project is supported by the Office of Child Labor, Forced Labor and Human Trafficking (OCFT) at the Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB), United States Department of Labor (USDOL). The FAIR Fish project is led by Plan International, an NGO with expertise in addressing forced labor (FL), human trafficking (HT) and child labor (CL) among fisherfolks and seafood processors in Thailand, Cambodia, Indonesia and the Philippines. Project implementation started in January 2019 and will end in December 2023.
The FAIR Fish Project has developed a responsible recruitment model for small and medium-sized seafood processing companies in consultation with two pilot companies and four recruitment agencies. The model draws upon a supply chain approach in which seafood processing companies are expected to cascade their responsible recruitment and employment policies down their recruitment supply chain to recruitment agencies that source their migrant workers.
Based on the model described above, the project has developed an online course that will train labor recruiters in Thailand, Cambodia and Myanmar. The course will exist in all three languages in addition to English. The course is also expected to benefit employers and human resource staff in seafood processing companies.
The online course has been completed and the project now needs support from a Burmese language proofreader and a Khmer language proofreader to ensure that course content in both languages is accurate.
III. Objective of the TOR
The project is recruiting a Burmese-speaking proof-reader and a Khmer-speaking proof-reader, with qualifying experience, to proofread content and support the editing process of the online course in Burmese and Khmer.
The proofreading and editing process (described below) will occur remotely and will require an estimated six hours per day over 13 working days. The proof-readers are expected to submit detailed reports on language errors and communicate in English with content editors from two IT companies.
