Job fairs of Enhanced Supplementary Labour Scheme to be held at job centres from tomorrow
*****************************************************************************************
To safeguard employment priority for local workers, the LD has been continuously enhancing the implementation arrangements for the ESLS. The LD announced that from tomorrow, if an employer applies to import waiters/waitresses or junior cooks under the ESLS, the employer will be required to join a job fair once a week during the four-week local recruitment period at job centres assigned by the LD and conduct job interviews on the spot. If an employer fails to join the arranged job fair(s), the LD will reject their application(s) for labour importation under the ESLS.
The LD encourages job seekers to participate in the job fairs to apply for vacancies of waiter/waitress, junior cook, and more. The job fairs will be held from 10am to 1pm or from 2.30pm to 5.30pm at designated job centres. Admission is free. For details of the job fairs, please visit the LD's Interactive Employment Service website (www.jobs.gov.hk/en/esls/jobfair).
