Worker dormitories for imported workers in Hong Kong

Accommodation standards

Under the ESLS Standard Employment Contract, accommodation provided by the employer must meet these standards:

• A clean, self-contained unit.
• At least 3.4 m² (about 36 sq ft) of net usable floor area per worker.
• Bedrooms separate from the rest room or living room.
• No more than 6 beds in each bedroom.
• Toilet, bathing and cooking facilities, electricity and water supply, and basic furniture including beds, an electric fan and a fridge, provided free of charge.

Accommodation charges

For approvals in principle issued on or after 16 June 2026, an employer may deduct an accommodation charge of up to 20% of the worker's wages (excluding overtime) or the actual cost, whichever is lower; earlier cases stay at 10%. Workers pay their own water, electricity and gas bills. Mainland-resident workers may instead live in their own home on the Mainland.

At Angels dormitories, utility bills are split by the actual days each resident stayed and are charged only after the bill has been reviewed.

Where our dormitories are: 28 districts

Records you can check

• Bill review: utility bills are checked against the account, dormitory and billing period before any split or charge.
• Transfers: a move between dormitories is one record — the move-out day is the new move-in day, so nothing is double-charged.
• Move-in and move-out dates are recorded to the day, and utility splits are calculated from them.
• Every past resident stays on record, so you can check who lived where in any month.

How it works

1. 1

   Consultation and site selection

   We learn how many workers are coming, their gender and the districts you prefer, and visit suitable flats with you in advance.

2. 2

   Agreement and deposit

   Once you confirm the location and arrival date, we sign a service agreement and prepare the dormitory within the agreed time. A deposit of two months' rent is payable.

3. 3

   Fit-out

   Our team fits out the flat and prepares everything the workers need on arrival.

4. 4

   Arrival

   When the workers arrive in Hong Kong, our team takes them to the dormitory and hands over their personal supplies.

5. 5

   Ongoing management

   Each dormitory has its own management group chat, so communication stays transparent.
