There is lots of info. on the Smart Living site.  As far as I know they only assist those in their retraining program.  Part time cleaner (as an example) is in this chart:

Employer also pays the goverment required insurance of HK$---/yr. (they give you a list of insurers) but no other fees, transportation, allowances.  Monthly rates are available for those who want it & it is legal for the monthly to live out.  Read the site and call or e-mail the point of contact w/ your concerns. They  find employees & arrange interviews.

I find it a great legal way to get part time/temporary help. I also feel good about helping a local persons employment. Just learned today that Cash has resigned and a man named Sam has taken his place: samliu@ywca.org.hk
