Eastern Media International Corp (TPE:2614) has received a suspension of work order from the Labor Inspection Office of the Labor Affairs Bureau of Kaohsiung City Government, Taiwan, following the July 15 incident which led to the death of an employee of the company while unloading grains on the vessel "SAPHIRA", according to a Monday filing to the Taiwan stock exchange.

The company's shares were up over 1% in Tuesday's trade.

The order is for the suspension of grain loading and unloading operations at Wharf No. 71 of Kaohsiung Port until
