HR & Recruitment in Hong Kong
When expanding a business to Hong Kong you'll need to make a few decisions in terms of staffing: decide if you can and want to relocate existing employees, and the processes required to employ foreign nationals.
Employing Foreign Nationals
The fundamental thing to comprehend when it comes to employing indigenous workers is the law. Depending on your location, the employment of staff can be affected by many extraneous factors, such as longevity of service, social charges, collective agreements, qualification and experience, etc.
In some countries, employing a certain amount of indigenous workers is mandatory. In Hong Kong, to employ overseas residents, the individual must prove special skills, knowledge or experience that are not readily available in Hong Kong. A sponsor is required (who is an employer in Hong Kong) and an application will need to be approved by the Hong Kong immigration department.
International Employees
Yet again, plucking talent from neighbouring countries may not come without its woes. Make sure you know the legislative restrictions and allowances of such a practice.
Employee Relocation
Perhaps you need someone with talent, experience and reliability. Someone you can trust. Someone with the right understanding of your business to join you overseas. And why not. But you must consider both the cost-effectiveness of such a move, and the laws that preside over it.
