雇佣未公平考量国人 杨莉明称雇主将面对更严厉惩处
人力部长杨莉明声称，那些在雇佣雇员时未公平考量或歧视本地人的雇主，在新近更新的公平考量框架（FCF）将面对更严重惩处。
若在招揽员工时未公平考量本地人，雇主将被禁止雇佣外籍员工至少一年，较严重案例还可把禁令延长至两年；被禁期间也不能为现有外籍员工更新就业准证。
有关公平考量框架的更新措施在本月生效，杨莉明认为这些举措将对于那些顽固雇主起到较强烈的震慑作用。
她是在今日（14日）出席Salesforce平台专业人士转业计划毕业典礼上，这么表示。
杨莉明称大部分公司都已理解何谓公平雇佣，而严厉举措则是针对那些仍以为公平考量框架只是“纸上谈兵”的顽固雇主。
至于那些在为雇员申请就业准证涉嫌虚报资料的雇主，也可能被提控。
在雇用外来人力法令下，若雇主谎报资料，可面对监禁两年，或最高2万元罚款，或两者兼施。
在公平考量框架下，要求雇主为那些月薪1万5000元以下的工作，须在职业库（Jobs Bank）刊登求职广告，为期两周。
