Latest arrangements on Labour Department public services

********************************************************

In light of the extension of special work arrangements for government employees and the latest development of the novel coronavirus infection, the Labour Department (LD) announced today (February 8) that the LD will provide limited public services between February 10 (Monday) and February 15 (Saturday). Except those provided by the Employment Agencies Administration (EAA), other counter services will remain suspended.

     The EAA will provide half-day counter services (from 9am to 1pm) from Monday to Friday for receiving applications for licence for employment agencies.

     Two Occupational Health Clinics and Occupational Medicine Units under the department will remain closed. Those who have made service appointments will be individually informed of the alternative arrangements.

     The LD will review the situation in due course and announce the arrangements thereafter.

     For enquiries, members of the public can call the LD's 24-hour enquiry hotline at 2717 1771 (the hotline is manned by ''1823'').
