This book is designed to guide the bench and bar, as well as law and maritime students, on the legal rights and obligations of the Filipino Seafarer, in relation to the Amended POEA Standard Employment Contract (POEA M.C No. 10, Series of 2010), the 2016 Revised POEA Rules and Regulations Governing the Recruitment and Employment of Seafarers, the Migrant Workers and Overseas Filipinos Act of 1995 (R.A. No. 8042, as amended), the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006, as amended (MLC, 2006), as well as relevant admiralty and maritime laws embodied in the Philippine Code of Commerce and jurisprudence enunciated by the Supreme Court. The author is hoping that readers of this book, particularly law practitioners, will find it a useful reference material and a good source for future amendments of labor laws and social legislations.
