〔記者林俊宏/台北報導〕中央山脈「能高安東軍縱走」去年底發生背工吳明旭
背負六十公斤裝備及糧食而墜崖摔死,由於背工是登山隊伍的靈魂人物,在台灣
卻長期被當成「馱獸」,還要負責炊事煮飯等雜務,而且薪資微薄,每天最多
只有三、四千元,遠在英國的國際背工保護組織獲悉此事後,近日將把此例PO在
官網,呼籲國際人權組織要正視。
馱重薪低 博崴媽媽盼政府重視
有山友形容,背工睡得比夜貓晚、起得比晨雞早、背得比馱騾重、跑得比賽馬快
、煮得比廚師好,如此待遇超差的工作,如果不是天性熱愛大自然,根本難以
維繫。
從事美語補教的博崴媽媽因兩年前的山難喪子之痛,長期關注台灣登山安全,
連月來蒐集翻譯整理英國、美國、坦尚尼亞及尼泊爾等國背工制度後,認為台灣
的背工不但負荷太重,薪資也明顯偏低。國外背工享有足夠資金支付救援和醫療
救護、登山保險、教育課程,更重要的是把背工當人看,最多只背廿到卅公斤。
博崴媽媽提到,以攀登非洲第一高峰的吉力馬札羅山為例,背工最多背廿公斤,
在秘魯及巴基斯坦是廿五公斤,尼泊爾則為卅公斤,吳明旭背負重量是國外背工
的兩倍,薪水卻只有國外的一半。
博崴媽媽說,台灣背工多以原住民居多,薪資超低,一天最多四千元,背超過
四十公斤更是家常便飯,不但超過人體負荷,不少背工的膝蓋或腰椎也早已受傷
,有的山友還把背工當馱獸,帳篷、爐具和公糧全都丟給背工,遇上天候不佳或
突發狀況,山難就會接踵而來;以吳明旭山難為例,多數山友都懷疑是背太重
才會摔下懸崖,後來隊員缺乏帳篷等裝備,不但有人差點失溫,領隊後來也死亡。
博崴媽媽說,台灣是山林國家,有上百萬的登山客走向大自然的環抱,她希望
政府要重視背工議題,可結合原住民長才來創造雙贏。

背工俗稱「挑夫」,即英文「porter」,負責背登山隊公家糧食及帳篷,但經常
「校長兼撞鐘」,連烹飪、找水源,甚至找路工作都一肩扛。
背工行情價約每天4000元,有時另加每天200元伙食補貼,學生挑夫則是價碼減半
;若隊員另要求背私人物品,則以公斤計價,每天每公斤約150元,不過,見隊員
走不動,常會主動免費幫忙背。
此外,背工遇難死亡,仍屬職災,依法雇主應支付死亡及喪葬補助費
