SUPREME COURT REPORTS ANNOTATED VOLUME 234 20/01/2020, 5(46 PM
Court shall exert every effort to vindicate the rights of OCWs when
they are abused and shall accord them the commensurate reparation
of their injuries consistent with their dignity and worth as members
of the working class.·This is still another case of the maltreatment
of our overseas contract workers, this time by the airline supposed
to bring the passenger to his foreign assignment. Our OCWs
sacrifice much in seeking employment abroad, where they are
deprived of the company of their loved ones, the direct protection of
our laws, and the comfort of our own native culture and way of life.
This Court shall exert every effort to vindicate their rights when
they are abused and shall accord them the commensurate
reparation of their injuries consistent with their dignity and worth
as members of the working class.
CRUZ, J.:
