COL is very pleased to participate in the HKIHRM “Pay Trend and Benefits Seminar 2023” held on October 19. Comparing the annual base pay adjustment by business sector, “Healthcare” (4.3%) topped the list of average base salary adjustment increases by industry, along with “Logistics & Transportation” (4.3%), followed by “Building  Engineering & Construction” (4.2%) in second place. The survey also projects the average salary increase next year in 2024 will be 4.1% (5.4% GBA), which is more ideal than the previous year.

Hong Kong enterprises and employers have faced severe labour shortage amid outbound migration and the increasing labour cost across industries.  Under the challenging labour market, the speakers completely shared their insights and experiences with support from the research and survey, to assist HR professionals and companies in “Attracting and Retaining Talent”– the theme of the seminar.

We are delighted to announce that our office has been successfully relocated to APM, Kwun Tong in January 2023, just before the Chinese New Year. Continuing the festive atmosphere, we have organized a grand opening party to celebrate with colleagues, long term partners and supporters. It’s so relaxing, joyful and cordial. Really like an old friend, freely chit chat, eat and drink, and taking photos. At the end, each guest received a small gift of “iBakery – Social Enterprise” cookies in supporting the people with disabilities.

Truly thanks for everyone’s presence in the party and even those who cannot join.  You have given us a great support as always. 

We are very pleased to continuing support and sponsor the “HKIHRM Pay Trend & Benefits Seminar” this year on 20th Oct.  The “Pay Trend Survey Results Highlights” section is still the spotlight of the whole event.  Surprisingly, the results have shown that the “Banking & Financial Services” sector was only at the 2nd highest annual base pay adjustment (4.5%) in 2022, while “Telecommunication, Multi-media & Technology” sector has largely exceeded it to the top at (9.8%).  The positive average annual base pay adjustment is continually projected to 2023 at (3.6%).

The seminar has also covered the “Great Resignation” and “Labour Shortage”  challenges with solutions to retaining talents and sourcing alternative talent pools.   The recent rising trend of “Lying Flat” and “Quiet Quitting” are quietly affecting the current employee engagement at work where we must pay more attention to.
