A Seafarer refers to any person who “is employed or engaged or works in any capacity on board a ship to which this Act applies”.
The definition is lifted from House Bill 7325 or the proposed Magna Carta of Filipino Seafarers which the House of Representatives approved on third and final reading last March 6, 2023.
