Albanian wins $1.3m in compensation

The employee will earn $1.3m in damages from the crotch company. Albanian 35-year-old Gail Jankulo won the legal battle, foreign media write.

The injured employee had previously won an arbitration price of $1,357,831,40. The Albanian thought he would end his financial difficulties.

But the Carnival Corporation in September 2018 ignored the price, saying it was unfair according to company arguments.

But a federal judge in Miami on 18 September ordered the navigation company to pay Jankulon with the amount of criminal interest amounting to $1186 a day.

The Albanian who has been working for a long time at Carnival Cruise Line suffered serious back injuries.

He began as a waiter assistant at the age of 23 in 2007. He later joined the Carnival Valor ship on December 7, 2014, at the age of 30.

On the same day, as he climbed up to his cabin, the bed handle broke and Jankulo fell back and broke her back.

He was sent back to Albania to receive treatment, where doctors said he had multiple spinal fractures. However, the Carnival stopped paying for Jankulo's medical treatment after several months.

In September 2018, a judge in Monaco determined that Carnival Cruise has had neglect of the case and has led the company to pay $1.4m for medical expenses, profit losses and trauma faced by the former employee.

But Carnival rejected the decision, saying the judge treated the company unfairly. But she lost the appeal.

After the Carnival refused, Jankulo took the material to a higher court. He went to the federal court in Miami and American Judge Ursula Ungaro decided in his favor and asked Carnival to pay him.
