香港國際海員服務中心工作團隊探望“明都會”郵輪海員 “Starry Metropolis” Visiting

香港國際海員服務中心工作團隊探望“明都會”郵輪海員

2020年11月11日,香港國際海員服務中心工作團隊登上“明都會”號郵輪,探望船上近160名受困海員。
On 11/11, the HKISSC volunteer team boarded a cruise ship “Starry Metropolis” and visited nearly 160 trapped seafarers.

受新冠病毒疫情影響,“明都會”號郵輪今年一月以來一直滯留香港海域,船上近160名海員的工資被拖欠至今。五月起,該郵輪因安全問題,被香港海事處扣查。六月,船上海員向ITF投訴工資被拖欠問題。在ITF香港檢查員的協助下,船員申請相關法律援助,並於十月正式向法院提出訴訟並扣留船隻。受困海員雖獲政府保障維持基本生活,但因長期欠薪,經濟窘迫,無力購買一些生活必需品。國際運輸工人聯盟香港海事檢查員告知此事后,中心理事會遂決定派員探訪並慰問郵輪上的受困海員,送上香港海事同行的關心。
Affected by COVID-19, “Starry Metropolis” has been stranded in Hong Kong waters since January, the wages of nearly 160 seafarers on board have been owed. Since May, the cruise ship has been detained by the Hong Kong Maritime Department for investigation due to safety issues. On the other hand, the crew raised a complaint to  ITF about wage arrears in June. The crew applied for relevant legal aid with the assistance of ITF inspectors , and in October formally filed a lawsuit in the court and detained the ship.

中心工作團隊精心籌劃,多方考察,為受困海員購置了口罩等防疫用品及電話卡、沐浴露等生活必需品。

考慮到“明都會”號郵輪已進入香港海事法庭的司法程序,在法庭批准遣返之前,受困海員將會一直滯留船上,中心將繼續關注船上海員的生活與精神狀況。
“Starry Metropolis” has entered the process of the Hong Kong Maritime Court, the trapped seafarers will remain on the ship until the court approves the repatriation. We will continue to pay attention to the crew.
