JOB STANDARDS FOR TWO INDUSTRIES OUTLINED IN NEW PUBLICATIONS
Another two publications setting out the minimum standards
and specifications for the main jobs in the building and civil engineering
industry and the silk weaving and finishing branch of the textile
industry will go on sale tomorrow.
The booklets outline the skills and knowledge which competent
workers in the principal trades should have, the type of training and
technical education necessary and the educational qualifications
needed for entry.
The job standards aim at establishing acceptable standards of
skill for the main jobs in each of the industries; guidelines for
technical courses; serving as reference material for managements in
devising training programmes for workers; and standardising the general
nomenclature already in use in the two industries.
The publications, in English and Chinese, have been prepared
by the respective committees of the Industrial Training Advisory Committee.
They will be available at the Government Publications Centre, Star
Ferry Concourse on Hong Kong Island.
