How the General Employment Policy (GEP) in Hong Kong Helps Secure PR
The General Employment Policy (GEP) in Hong Kong provides foreigners with certain skills with permission to work in areas facing shortage of labor. It offers a route to secured permanent residency (PR) entitlement for after 7 years of continuous employment. PR status provides work flexibility, access to public health care, and the possibility of tenure and stability. Qualifiers must hold a stable job and, of course, not break immigration laws.
