Respondent denies that he and his wife were given cash advances while he was on board; that he had received the amount of US$1,010.00 from the petitioners as settlement of all his claims; and that the Receipt and Quitclaim dated June 25, 1997, allegedly executed by him, was a falsified document as the signature appearing therein was a forgery. Contrary to petitioners' contention, respondent is entitled to sickness wages. The shooting pain on his right foot is an injury which he suffered during the course of his employment and, therefore, obligates petitioners to compensate him and provide him the appropriate medical treatment.   This is in consonance with the mandated provisions under Section 20 B (1), (2), (3), (4), and (5) of the Standard Terms and Conditions Governing the Employment of Filipino Seafarers On Board Ocean-Going Vessels, 24[24] pursuant to Department Order No. 4, series of 2000, of the Department of Labor and Employment (by then Secretary Bienvenido E. Laguesma), adopted on May 31, 2000, which provides that:   SECTION 20. COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS 24[24] This is the revised version of the “Standard Employment Contract Governing the Employment of All Filipino Seamen On Board Ocean-Going Vessels” of 1989 and the “Revised Standard Employment Terms and Conditions Governing the Employment of Filipino Seafarers On Board Ocean-Going Vessels,” per Department of Labor and Employment Department Order No. 33, Series of 1996, (approved by the POEA and effective on January 1, 1997) and POEA Memorandum Circular No. 055-96, issued by Administrator Felicisimo O. Joson, Jr. and adopted on December 16, 1996.
