MINOR WORKS (CLASS 1, 2 & 3) SERVICES
The Government OF HKSAR has amended the Buildings Ordinance in June 2008 to introduce the MWCS, facilitating members of the public to carry out minor works in private buildings lawfully through simplified procedures and thereby improve the building safety in Hong Kong. The Building (Minor Works) Regulation [B(MW)R], which provides for the modus operandi of the system, was passed by the Legislative Council in May 2009. As The Minor Works Control System (MWCS) has been fully implemented since 31 December 2010. In order not to violate the legal requirements of the new system, any member of the public intending to carry out minor works should employ prescribed building professionals (PBP) and/or prescribed registered contractors (PRC) to do so.
A total of 126 items of building works have been included as minor works subject to the control under the MWCS, are grouped into over 20 categories in accordance with the nature/ substance of the works. The size, location and respective criteria of each item of minor works are set out in the B(MW)R. These minor works are classified into three classes according to their scale, complexity and risk to safety:
- Class I (total of 44 items) includes mainly those relatively more complicated minor works
- Class II (total of 40 items) comprises those of comparatively lower complexity and risk to safety
- Class III (total of 42 items) mainly includes common household minor works
