Briefing for Employment Agencies

2023-08-04

The Labour Department will organize a briefing for the employment agencies industry which you are cordially invited to attend. The contents of the briefing include the points-to-note and obligations relevant to the operation of employment agencies under Part XII of the Employment Ordinance, Employment Agency Regulations and the Code of Practice for Employment Agencies, as well as introducing the electronic Employment Agencies Services (e-EAS), including the use of digital signing for submission of various licence-related applications.
