Major Hong Kong restaurant chain sued over failure to pay HK$3.1 million in staff pension contributions on time
Hong Kong’s pension regulator has taken a catering industry leader’s restaurant chain to court over HK$3.1 million in unpaid pension fund contributions owed to its 980 employees after it failed to pay Mandatory Provident Fund (MPF) for two months in a row this year.
The MPF Schemes Authority said on Thursday it had filed a writ a day earlier against Kam Kee Holdings for the overdue payments from the first quarter of the year.
“Since March this year, we have received 15 complaints from employees about the company failing to pay for their MPF in February and March,” the authority said.
The chain, which operates 38 restaurants and has closed seven this year because of the economic downturn, is run by Ray Chui Man-wai, its chairman and also the president of catering body the Institute of Dining Art.
The authority added it was checking the group’s MPF payments for April and would file another writ if the required contributions had not been made.
