Employment

Hong Kong’s employment framework balances business flexibility with employee protections, governed primarily by the Employment Ordinance (Cap. 57) and supplemented by anti-discrimination laws, data privacy regulations, and common law principles.

From drafting employment contracts to handling complex litigation, we assist clients with matters including dismissals, restrictive covenant enforcement, and discrimination claims. Whether through negotiation or court action, we tailor our services to achieve the best possible outcomes for employers and employees alike.
