飲食機構違規 禁聘外勞兩年

尚苑宴會廳有限公司經營的尚苑中菜廳經補充勞工優化計劃輸入勞工後解僱本地工人,被勞工處施加行政制裁,包括本月27日起撤銷給予該公司輸入勞工的原則性批准,並拒絕處理該公司在隨後兩年提交的輸入勞工申請。

 

勞工及福利局局長孫玉菡今日會見傳媒時指,勞工處接獲投訴後展開調查,並給予僱主機會提供申述,但證據顯示,僱主的確在輸入勞工後解僱本地勞工。根據輸入外勞的規則,此舉屬嚴重違規。

 

他續指,僱主之前獲批15個輸入勞工配額,目前11名輸入勞工已在港工作,餘下四個未用配額一定不可使用。已在港的11名輸入勞工可以繼續工作或轉工,若他們離港,僱主的配額便會失效。

 

孫玉菡表示,這項懲罰對涉事僱主具有足夠阻嚇性。政府希望發出強烈信息,讓所有申請輸入勞工的僱主知道,一定要讓本地工人優先就業,輸入勞工後不可解僱本地工人。如有違規,政府會第一時間實施行政制裁。
