A MANPOWER SURVEY OF THE ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY IS SCHEDULED FOR LATER THIS MONTH TO COLLECT UP-TO-DATE INFORMATION ON TRAINING REQUIREMENTS.
THE SURVEY, THE SIXTH OF ITS KIND, WILL BE CONDUCTED BY THE ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY TRAINING BOARD OF THE HONG KONG TRAINING COUNCIL FROM JUNE 16 TO 23 WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF THE LABOUR DEPARTMENT AND THE CENSUS AND STATISTICS DEPARTMENT.
BASED ON THE SURVEY'S FINDINGS, THE BOARD WILL MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS ON MANPOWER TRAINING FOR THE INDUSTRY.
QUESTIONNAIRES AND EXPLANATORY LETTERS WERE SENT YESTERDAY TO ESTABLISHMENTS SELECTED FOR THE SURVEY.
ASSISTANT CENSUS AND STATISTICS OFFICERS WILL CALL AT EACH OF THEM DURING THE SURVEY PERIOD TO ASSIST IN COMPLETING THE QUESTIONNAIRES, IF NECESSARY, AND TO COLLECT THE COMPLETED QUESTIONNAIRES.
THE ESTABLISHMENTS ARE REQUESTED TO SUPPLY, FOR EACH PRINCIPAL JOB OF THE INDUSTRY, THE NUMBER OF WORKERS EMPLOYED, AS WELL AS THOSE UNDER TRAINING, THE NUMBER OF EXISTING VACANCIES AND A FORECAST OF ADDITIONAL WORKERS IN THE NEXT 12 MONTHS.
THE CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD, DR ANDREW S.L. CHUANG, SAID TODAY THAT THE INFORMATION COLLECTED WOULD BE HANDLED IN STRICT CONFIDENCE AND WOULD BE PUBLISHED IN STATISTICAL SUMMARIES ONLY, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ANY INDIVIDUAL ESTABLISHMENT.
MR CHUANG URGED THE SELECTED ESTABLISHMENTS TO OFFER THEIR CO-OPERATION, ADDING THAT THE INFORMATION TO BE COLLECTED FROM THE SURVEY WAS IMPORTANT FOR FORMULATING MEANINGFUL TRAINING PLANS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE INDUSTRY.
