Legislator Hong Shen-han revealed on June 20, 2024, that a seafarer became half paralyzed after falling during work, with the shipping company not only unjustly dismissing him but the port authority also becoming an accomplice. Despite the regulations clearly stating that employment contracts cannot be terminated during the medical period resulting from work injuries, the company unlawfully dismissed the seafarer while he was still under medical care, prompting strong criticism from Legislator Hong. The port authority's document denying compensation for the seafarer blatantly assists the company in mistreating employees, according to Legislator Hong, who vows to pursue justice for the disabled seafarer.
