Sick days

Paid sick leave depends on length of service, with employees entitled to two sick days per month in their first year with an employer, doubling to four days per month from year two onward. Employees may accumulate sick leave up to a maximum of 120 days. Sick pay is 80% of the employee's average salary over the last year or from the day of commencing employment (if that was less than a year ago).

Maternity leave

Employees who have been with an employer for a minimum of 40 weeks are entitled to 14 weeks of maternity leave (rising to 18 weeks in the event of multiple or complicated births). Maternity leave commences between two and four weeks prior to the expected date of birth. Maternity leave payments amount to 80% of the employee's average salary over the last year (up to a cap of 80,000 KD), with the employer being reimbursed by the government.

Paternity leave

Employees who have been with an employer for a minimum of 40 weeks are entitled to five days of paid paternity leave. Paternity leave payments amount to 80% of the employee's average salary over the last year.

Termination

Termination Process

Labor laws set out the standard termination process that must be followed in Hong Kong unless an employer has evidence to justify dismissal without notice. Written notice of termination is required and must also be sent to relevant government authorities.

Notice Period

Standard notice periods are 30 days unless the employment contract specifies a longer period.

Severance Pay

Employers must give severance pay to eligible employees (i.e. those who have been employed for at least two years and who have neither resigned nor been summarily dismissed). Severance pay amounts to either two-thirds of 22,500 HKD or two-thirds of the employee's regular salary (whichever figure is lower) for each year of service (up to a maximum payment of 390,000 HKD).

Probation Period

Employment contracts in Hong Kong must stipulate the length of the probation period, which is typically somewhere between one week and one month.
