Register of Minor Works Contractors

Certificate of Registration of Registered Minor Works Contractor (Company)

Under the Buildings Ordinance (BO), the Building Authority (BA) is to keep a register and a provisional register of minor works contractors who are qualified to carry out such minor works belonging to the class, type and item specified in the register in which they are registered.

For ease of identification, those minor work contractors who are registered in the name of an individual self-employed worker for carrying out various items of class III minor works are to be referred to as Registered Minor Works Contractors (Individual) (RMWCs (Ind)). On the other hand, those minor works contractors who are registered in the name of a company [including corporations, sole proprietorship and partnership] for carrying out various types and classes of minor works are to be referred to as Registered Minor Works Contractors (Company) (RMWCs (Co)).

  • the appropriate qualifications and experience;
  • the ability and skills to personally carry out the item or items of class III minor works for which registration relates;
  • completion of a recognized training course on class III minor works; and
