More than 180 foreign domestic helpers who just arrived from Indonesia took part in a seminar conducted by the Hong Kong Immigration Department at the invitation of the Indonesian Consulate General earlier today, November 18.
Participants at the seminar were informed about issues relating to human trafficking so their awareness about the prevalent but often overlooked offence is enhanced.

Officers from Immigration’s Enforcement Branch also told them about the restrictions attached to their visas as domestic workers, the most important of which is that they should only perform domestic duties for the employer named in their employment contract and for no one else.
The officers appealed to them not to take up any unapproved employment, or to overstay.

The participants were also briefed on other key matters to note while working in Hong Kong.
Officers and staff of the Indonesian Consulate were on hand to listen to the briefing, and expressed gratitude to the Immigration Department for its support.
In turn, the Consulate promised to work closely with authorities to further promote publicity and enhance the education of newly arrived FDHs in Hong Kong.
