理事長歡迎辭
本會於2019年5月進行了一項問卷調查,收集了約500名會員的回覆。調查結果顯示,當時約有20%的會員面臨失業或即將失業的困境。然而,現時情況更加嚴峻。過去幾個月內,多個大型基建工程相繼完工,而政治因素則延遲了新工程項目在立法會的撥款審批。我們相信,RSS的就業情況已變得更加艱難。因此,RSS需要更加團結,積極推動大型基建項目的儘快啟動,以創造更多就業機會。
在過去幾年中,本會與發展局持續進行磋商,成功解決了長期困擾RSS的斷約條款問題。自2018年8月《駐地盤人員管理手冊》簽發以來,斷約期已延長至5年,且可豁免斷約的工作類別也擴大至其他政府資助的大型工程項目(包括第三條機場跑道、醫院重建及啟德體育園等),這使得RSS的工作穩定性有了明顯改善。
經過多年積極參與社會事務,本會的業界地位得到了提升。根據最新修訂的《建造業工人註冊條例》,本會已成為四個有資格確認半熟練工人年資的認可工會之一。
我們將繼續努力為RSS發聲,保障會員的就業機會及權益。同時,我們也會致力舉辦各類活動,提供訓練機會,幫助RSS提升自我價值。

Chairman's Welcome
In May 2019, our Association conducted a survey, gathering responses from approximately 500 members. The results revealed that about 20% of members were facing unemployment or were at risk of job loss. However, the situation has since worsened. Over the past few months, several major infrastructure projects have been completed, while political factors have delayed funding approvals for new projects in the Legislative Council. We believe the employment situation for Resident Site Staff (RSS) has become even more challenging. Therefore, RSS must unite and actively advocate for the prompt initiation of large-scale infrastructure projects to create more job opportunities.
Over the past few years, our Association has engaged in continuous discussions with the Development Bureau, successfully resolving the long-standing issue of contract break clauses. Since the issuance of the Resident Site Staff Management Handbook in August 2018, the contract break period has been extended to five years, and exemptions have been expanded to include other government-funded major projects, such as the third airport runway, hospital redevelopment, and Kai Tak Sports Park. These changes have significantly improved job stability for RSS.
Through years of active engagement in community affairs, our Association’s industry standing has been elevated. Under the latest amendments to the Construction Workers Registration Ordinance, we have been recognized as one of four unions authorized to verify the seniority of semi-skilled workers.
We will continue to advocate for RSS, safeguarding members’ employment opportunities and rights. Additionally, we are committed to organizing various activities and providing training opportunities to help RSS enhance their professional value.

駐地盤人員協會是由負責監管工務工程及大型基建項目的駐地盤人員所組成,會員包括專業工程師,專業土地測量師/工料測量師,工程監督人員,測量人員,技術人員及文職人員等。
聘用駐地盤人員監督工務工程的制度歷史悠久,由五十年代起,政府需要興建各類基建工程,如水塘,機場,鐵路,道路,填海及新市鎮等項目,以配合社會人口和經濟的增長。 政府於是制定了一套聘用合約駐地盤人員(以公務人員身份)監督工務工程的制度。
本會於一九八九年六月創立,當時加入香港政府華員會,並成為其屬會之一。
由於香港主權的移交,政府在一九九五年至一九九八年間推行私有化政策。以外判形式將駐地盤人員轉為由顧問工程公司聘請。
於一九九八年,為配合私有化政策的完成,本會脫離了政府華員會,並改名為「顧問工程公司 (駐地盤) 人員協會」。現時,本會為工聯會屬會之一,會名亦簡化為「駐地盤人員協會」。並於二零一二年,應香港建造業總工會邀請,本會加入成為其屬會成員。
本會的目標是致力提升工程監管質素,包括施工安全標準及環境保護常規等。
Resident Site Staff Association (RSSA) is formed by personnel working for site supervision of public works projects or other large infrastructure projects. Members include professional engineers, professional quantity surveyors, inspectorate site staff, survey site staff, technicians, clerical site staff, etc..
The system for deployment of Resident Site Staff (RSS) to supervise public works projects has a long history. Since 50’s, the government has been raising a lot of large infrastructure projects, including reservoirs, airports, highways, railways, reclamation, new town developments, etc. in order to cope with the need of the population and economic growth. The government then formulated a system to employ contract resident site staff, as Crown Servants, to carry out the site supervision.
RSSA was established in late 80s and was affiliated to the Hong Kong Chinese Civil Servants’ Association (HKCSCA) at that time.
In connection with the sovereignty handover for Hong Kong, the government implemented a policy [namely Direct Employment System (DES)] between 1995 and 1998 to change the RSS status from Crown Servants to employees employed by consulting engineering firms.
In 1998, RSSA detached itself from HKCSCA because of the completion of the DES and was renamed as “Consulting Engineering Firm Resident Site Staff Association”. It is now being affiliated to the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions, with a simplified name of “Resident Site Staff Association”.
The goal of RSSA is to raise the quality of site supervision, including safety standard, and environment protection practices, etc..
