#MARINAPH The proposed magna carta, if enacted, will serve as the enabling law to enforce the Maritime Labor Convention 2006, otherwise known as the 'Bill of Rights' of seafarers. The MLC 2006 sets minimum labor standards for seafarers onboard commercial ships. 'Kaya ang kahilingan po namin ay masiguro lang na kasama ang Filipino fishers sa definition ng Filipino seafarers sa bill (that why we are requesting that Filipino fishers be also covered by the bill),' Cacdac said. Unlike the traditional seafarers, the crew of international fishing vessels are often subjected to underpayment of wages, the substitution of contracts and long working hours with practically no medical benefits. Many of them are undocumented. Even as he expressed full support for the enactment of the proposed Magna Carta for Filipino Seafarers, Cacdac underscored the need to extend protection to Filipino workers deployed onboard overseas fishing ships by including them in the coverage of the bill. DMW USec Hans Leo Cacdac made the pitch in favor of Filipino fishers, who inarguably are the most oppressed and exploited among overseas Filipino sea-based workers, during the recent public hearing on the bill conducted by the House Committee on Overseas Workers Affairs.
