Keep your workforce healthy. Keep your business moving.

Hong Kong’s workforce is changing fast. With over a fifth of the population already aged 65 or older [1]  – and that number set to rise sharply – businesses across essential industries are facing a serious talent crunch.

That’s why the government launched the Enhanced Supplementary Labour Scheme (ESLS) – opening the door for employers to bring in skilled talent from abroad. But hiring imported labour comes with new responsibilities too.

That’s where we come in.

Our Import Labour Medical Scheme is built to help you meet ESLS requirements while giving your team the healthcare support they deserve. It’s flexible, affordable, and keeps your business running smoothly.
