Document background
The Commitment Letter For Work is a crucial document in Hong Kong's employment landscape, serving as a bridge between initial job offer and formal employment. It is typically used following successful job negotiations but prior to the issuance of a full employment contract. The document must align with Hong Kong employment laws, particularly the Employment Ordinance (Cap. 57), and includes essential terms such as compensation, position details, start date, and basic employment conditions. This letter creates legally binding obligations while maintaining flexibility for both parties to negotiate final contract details. It's particularly valuable in situations requiring quick confirmation of employment terms or when dealing with international hires, providing a formal commitment while detailed contracts are being prepared.
