In recent years, immigration has appeared in Hong Kong, and Hong Kong people with 100,000 Hong Kong people have moved to overseas.With the resurrection of the society after the epidemic at the beginning of this year, there are problems in many industries in Hong Kong.The survey by Shao Jiahui, a member of the Legislative Council of the wholesale and retail industry, showed that nearly 85%of the 800 wholesale or retailers interviewed believed that the long -term shortage of manpower or difficulty in recruitment, about 91%supported input foreign workers.
Shao Jiahui pointed out on Tuesday that Hong Kong now has a comprehensive recovery, and all walks of life lacks people, and can only retain employees through continuous salary increase.However, Hong Kong has just begun to reconnect. Many companies' business has not yet recovered. If costs cannot be passed on to consumers, they may be forced to abandon their operations.
Shao Jiahui suggested that the Hong Kong Government enters workers from the Guangdong -Hong Kong -Macao Greater Bay Area to facilitate them to return to the two places today to avoid affecting the rent of housing in Hong Kong; and restricting foreign workers' salary as the industry medium to ensure that the salary is not too lowEssence
In addition to the retail industry, the Hong Kong transportation industry also faces the problem of lack of manpower.According to the Hong Kong media quoted, the Hong Kong government is considering entering foreign workers in the special line industry.
