Minimum Wage Ordinance
Minimum Wage Ordinance
The Statutory Minimum Wage (SMW) has come into force since 1 May 2011. However, there are some exemptions for specified student interns and work experience students during a period of exempt student employment under the Minimum Wage Ordinance. If you are employed with remunerations below the minimum wage, your employer may ask you/ the University for a Confirmation of “Student Interns” or “Work Experience Students” status.
If students are required to certify “Work Experience Students” status (normally for non credit-bearing employment), please complete the below form and return with your employment details issued by your employer (e.g. employment contract, etc.) via email to
career@ouhk.edu.hk.
If students are required to certify “Student Interns” status (normally for credit-bearing employment or practicum), please contact respective academic school office for details of arrangements.
For more details about SMW, please go to the Labour Department’s website [
