FILE - In this aerial photo taken with a drone, flood waters surround storm damaged homes on Aug. 31, 2021, in Lafourche Parish, La., as residents try to recover from the effects of Hurricane Ida. Ten Filipino men who worked for a major offshore oil industry employer claim in a federal lawsuit in Feburary 2022 that they were treated like prisoners at a company bunkhouse and that two of them were abandoned there when Hurricane Ida struck the Louisiana Gulf Coast in 2021.

The competing court filings at the U.S. District Court in New Orleans lay out starkly different views of life for Filipinos who work under federally granted visas at the Louisiana-based company. “We have dreams for our family and children,” Hernandez said in an email. “We want them to have a better future.”

A 15-year employee of the company, Hernandez said there was little food when he arrived at the quarantine vessel.The company denied such allegations in its counterclaim filed Oct. 10, 2022.
