To arouse the safety awareness of the electrical workers, EMSD is organising the "Registered Electrical Workers Safety Competition" [PDF format (576KB)]. The competition aims to promote work safety messages to the electrical trade. To tie in with this competition, EMSD has produced a short video entitled "Electrical Work Safety" for reference of electrical workers.
The competition will be conducted in two stages.
In the first stage, a written test will be held. Participants will answer multiple choice questions regarding safe electrical work. The 10 participants with the highest scores will enter the second stage.
In the second stage, interviews will be conducted. The Adjudication Panel, which comprises 5 senior members from the electrical trade, will ask the participants questions on various safety aspects. Winners will be selected based on the participants' knowledge of the following subjects:
Participants must be registered electrical workers in Hong Kong (regardless of the grades of work for which they are registered) and must be nominated by the registered electrical contractors or property management companies who employ them. Each company can nominate no more than 5 registered electrical workers. A separated nomination form should be used for each nomination.
Nomination forms must be submitted to the Electricity Legislation Division, EMSD in person or by fax before the nomination deadline.
