Labour Relations and Labour Conditions in Hong Kong
by Sek Hong Ng, Victor Fung-shuen Sit, and Ng Sek Hong
Published May 1989
An introduction to labour conditions in Hong Kong with a review of the pattern of industrial relations that have emerged within the territory, especially against the background of its contemporary industrial development and economic growth. The first two chapters are contextual, outlining in turn Hong Kong's historical profile and its institutional framework. The ensuing five chapters are intended to be both narrative and analytical. The study is based on a report prepared by the authors for the International Labour Office in connection with research undertaken by the ILO on labour relations issues in a number of export-oriented economies. This publication is the outcome of a WEP project which was launched by the International Labour Organisation in 1969, as the ILO's main contribution to the International Development Strategy for the WSecond Untited Nations Development Decade.
