What is Seaworthiness in Western Shipping Case about?
In the case of Western Shipping v. NLRC, the private respondent, a master of the M/V Sea Wealth, was dismissed for allegedly allowing unauthorized passengers to board the vessel, leading to a complaint of illegal dismissal and wage issues. The court ruled that the vessel was seaworthy, as it was lighter on its voyage to Manila and capable of safely carrying the additional passengers. The POEA initially found the dismissal illegal and ordered compensation for the private respondent.
