Abstract: Despite its advanced economy, Hong Kong’s policies for family caregivers have significant gaps with respect to dependent care leave, flexitime options, and nursing support for new mothers. Hong Kong scored much better for Sub-Index B because, with close to 380,000 migrant domestic workers, the government has been forced to strengthen its protections on this front. Overall, Hong Kong scored 5.28 (out of 10) on the GCPI, locating itself on the low end of the "Maturing" band of the GCPI.
