Chris Sun reiterates priority employment protection for local workers, to submit legislative proposals on work injury protection for platform workers this year

Speaking during the Legislative Council's consolidated debate on Hong Kong's First Five-Year Plan and the Policy Address, Chris Sun said he would strive to protect priority employment for local workers. Imported labour will be brought in in an orderly and moderate manner, subject to the premise of protecting local workers, with dynamic adjustments; this year, legislative proposals on statutory work injury protection for food delivery and takeaway platform workers will be submitted. In elder care, community vouchers and residential care vouchers will be increased, along with subsidised residential care places.
