Details

Changes in Hong Kong employment law continue to penetrate more deeply into day-to-day workplace activities and decisions, as this new edition of an indispensable guide reveals. In addition to the essential practical guidance employers expect, the Fourth Edition of Hong Kong Employment Law: A Practical Guide shows you how to securely comply with new and emerging law in such areas as:

  • Minimum Wage Ordinance (MWO) 2011 which came into force on 1 May 2011.
  • The Personal Data (Privacy) (Amendment) Bill 2011
  • The Protection of Wages on Insolvency (Amendment) Bill 2011
  • The amendment to The Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes (Amendment) Ordinance (MPFSO)
  • The Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC) Codes of Practice on Employment pursuant to the Discrimination Ordinances.
