Fake labour scheme letter clarified


The Immigration Department today clarified that a letter it purportedly issued claiming the Government will stop accepting applications under the Supplementary Labour Scheme (SLS) from November is groundless and fictitious.

 

The department stressed that it never issued such a letter to any person or organisation, and reminded the public not to be misled by the fake message.

 

It condemned the parties who made use of the false document to deliberately disseminate incorrect and untrue information, adding that resolute follow-up action will be taken.

 

The SLS has been renamed as the Enhanced Supplementary Labour Scheme (ESLS) and started accepting applications since September 4.

 

The approvals-in-principle previously granted under the SLS remain valid for the purpose of application for employment in Hong Kong under the ESLS within the periods specified in the approval-in-principle letters.
