Minimum wage and licensed agencies

The monthly figure for the minimum wage rises together with the hourly rate, so check which basis the offer uses. If a labourer is supplied by an agency, the agency must hold an employment agency licence or a Certificate of Exemption, and the licence fee and processing time are published. Check the agency's licence before you agree to a rate.

Construction worker registration

Construction workers in Hong Kong need to be registered, and the application fee for registration is HK$100 under the construction workers registration fee rules. Ask the worker or the contractor to confirm the registration before work starts. Daily-rate site jobs are common in the listings, so confirm whether the rate is per day and whether lunch or travel is included.

Season and working hours

Winter runs from December to February, when outdoor work is most comfortable. Summer from June to August is hot, so ask how the schedule handles the midday heat. Confirm the start time, the shift length and whether the job is full-time or on call, because a day rate and a monthly salary add up very differently over a year.

What to write in your request

Name the duties, the workplace district (Central, Kowloon, Sha Tin, Tsuen Wan or Tuen Mun), the schedule and the employment type. Say how you want to be paid, per hour, per day or per month, and whether you need work experience or accommodation. For an agency worker, ask for the licence number.

On BlaBlaPrice you describe the work in your own words.

Sellers registered on BlaBlaPrice receive the request and answer in the chat with their own offer, rate and terms. Your contact details stay hidden until you decide with whom to exchange them.
