The successful candidate should be physically fit, well-groomed, reliable, comfortable standing for extended periods, and willing to work shifts, weekends, and public holidays.
Can I work in Hong Kong?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Hotel line jobs only via the Labour Department's import scheme: 4-week local test, median wage, 2 local staff per import; managers get a General Employment Policy visa.
Watch for: Since 16 June 2026 kitchen and table-service jobs need a 6-week local test and 3 local staff per import; the hotel applies, you cannot apply yourself.
Official source: Labour Department: Enhanced Supplementary Labour Scheme. Checked November 2026.

| Housing | Not for local hires; imported line staff are housed by the hotel, at most 20% of pay deducted (scheme rule) |
|---|---|
| Meals | Staff canteen or duty meals common; free for imported workers when provided (scheme rule) |

| Contract | Imported workers: 24 months at most, then 7+ days home leave and a new approval (scheme rule) |
| Leave | 7 days a year, rising to 14 after 9 years, plus 15 statutory holidays (by law) |

Senior staff often get more than line staff, for example a single room or a yearly home flight. Ask the employer what the job includes before you accept.
