JOB MATCHING CENTRE

The Job Matching Centre (JMC) is the application office of the Supplementary Labour Scheme which allows employers with genuine difficulties in finding suitable staff locally to import workers. However, to ensure the priority of local workers in employment, and to safeguard their salaries and benefits, employers must accord priority to fill available job vacancies with local workers. The major work of the JMC include:

• vetting employers' applications for importation of workers under the Supplementary Labour Scheme (SLS) and Supplementary Labour Scheme (Flexibility Measures for the Textiles and Clothing Industry)(SLS(TCS));
  
• registering local job-seekers who are interested in the vacancies registered under the SLS; and
  
• identifying suitable jobs for local job-seekers according to their academic qualifications, job skills, working experience, job expectations, etc. and arranging job interviews for them.
