To align with the Government's announcement to fully resume normal public services subject to the implementation of targeted measures to reduce social contact and the application of infection control measures, all service counters and the two occupational health clinics in Kwun Tong and Fanling under the Labour Department (LD) will resume normal opening hours from next Tuesday (September 15).
In view of public health considerations, members of the public entering the LD's offices and clinics have to undergo on-the-spot temperature checks and should wear masks at all times. Crowd control arrangements will also be implemented.
Members of the public may continue to make use of the department's online services and information (www.labour.gov.hk). Job seekers can use the Interactive Employment Service Website (www.jobs.gov.hk) for job search purposes. The LD's Telephone Employment Service Centre, all Job Centres and industry-based Recruitment Centres also provide enquiry and employment services by telephone during office hours (telephone numbers and office hours are shown at www.jobs.gov.hk/1/0/WebForm/information/en/our_service/info_jobcentres.aspx).
