The Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority (MPFA) obtained an order for payment of outstanding MPF contributions owed to three employees at around $230,000 against an employer in the District Court.
The District Court earlier issued a judgement against an employer. The defendant, Tai Tung Mould Factory Limited, was ordered to pay the MPFA the sum of $232,280.14, being mandatory contributions in arrears and surcharges payable to three employees of the defendant.
The amount awarded will be reimbursed to the employees' MPF accounts as soon as it is received by the MPFA. The court further ordered the defendant to pay $930 to the MPFA as the cost of the claim.
