Forced labor in China's seafood industry, involving Uyghurs and North Koreans, is contaminating the global seafood supply chain, including products sold in the US. This was revealed in a report by The Outlaw Ocean Project. The report highlights modern slavery in China's illegal fishing fleet and processing plants, where Uyghurs are employed through labor transfer projects. There is also evidence of North Koreans working in fish processing in Liaoning province. The US has laws prohibiting imports of seafood produced with forced labor, but government, grocery chains, and restaurants continue to purchase such products.
