Members of UNI Hong Kong Liaison Council - the Retail, Commerce and Clothing Industries General Union and its branch the Insurance and Finance Practitioners’ Solidarity Sector, the PCCW Staff Association, and the Building Management and Security Workers General Union - participated at the Labour Day Rally co-organized by the Hong Kong Confederation of Trade Unions. More than 2,300 protesters were in support of a range of demands, including shorter working hours and a higher minimum wage. The protesters marched from Victoria Park to the Central Government Office (CGO). Marchers also demanded better rights for workers and better labour policies. Along the way to the CGO, marchers shouted, “Fight for Working Hours Regulation. Fight for Collective Bargaining Rights. Government to legislate Family Friendly Policies, We want Real Universal Suffrage.” The peaceful demonstration took more than 2 hours.
