Aristotle once said: ”Those that know do. Those that understand, teach”.
Our law firm Sapalo Velez Bundang Bulilan ( SVBB) believes that the
best way to afford legal protection to seafarers is for them to be
properly educated of their legal rights. As part of our law firm's
advocacy for seafarers' right, we conduct weekly paralegal lectures in
coordination with organizations like Luneta Seafarers Welfare Foundation
(LUSWELF).
The paralegal
lecture is divided into the
following parts:
Part I. Situationer of
the seafaring industry, both in the national and international level
using statistics from POEA, CHED, BSP.
Part II. Basic legal issues:
(a)
sources of legal rights i.e. Phil. Constitution; R.A. 8042 as amended; Labor laws;
POEA Contract/ CBA; Civil Code and
b. kinds of cases: illegal recruitment, illegal dismissal, underpayment/ nonpayment of salaries/wages, disability benefits for illness and injury and death benefits
(c)
means how to protect these legal rights
