About us

Established in 1948, the Hong Kong Housing Society (HKHS) is an independent and not-for-profit organisation dedicated to providing quality housing for the people of Hong Kong. With the support of the Government, the Housing Society has implemented various housing schemes to meet the evolving needs of the community. As the first non-government public housing organisation in Hong Kong and the city’s “housing laboratory”, we keep progressing with the times to explore new solutions, using our own resources or in partnership with the Government, so as to help address different housing needs. This spirit of innovation is the cornerstone of our business development. HKHS is governed by Members with a Supervisory Board and an Executive Committee made up of professionals coming from all walks of life. The Supervisory Board is responsible for the formulation of the Housing Society's mission and guiding principles; whereas the Executive Committee establishes strategies and policies to achieve the corporate mission and objectives. The Management, led by the Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director, is accountable for the implementation of the strategies in business operations. 香港房屋協會(房協)成立於1948年,是一個獨立的非牟利機構,致力為香港市民提供優質居所。在政府的支持下,房協發展不同類型的房屋計劃,配合社會不斷演變的需要。 作為香港首個非政府的房屋機構及香港「房屋實驗室」,房協緊隨時代步伐,自行推出或與政府合作推行嶄新的提案,以解決不同的住屋需要。這個創新求進的理念是我們業務發展的基石。 房協由委員管治,其監事會及執行委員會的成員均是來自社會各界的專業人士。監事會負責制訂房協的宗旨及企業原則,執行委員會負責制訂策略及政策,確保公司策略與機構宗旨及既定方針相符,由行政總裁兼執行總幹事領導的管理層則負責執行日常業務上既定的策略。

    【HKHS 2023/24 Sustainability Report】 With climate change being a hot topic on the global stage, we have embraced our role as Hong Kong's "housing laboratory" by developing initiatives that address societal needs and foster multi-generational, sustainable communities. The theme of our 75th anniversary celebration, “Creating Homes for Sustainable Living,” has inspired a series of engaging activities that bring together our community and stakeholders. One notable example is our six-month Community ESG Programme, which successfully engaged over 13,000 households in our rental estates and among the staff to achieve a reduction of nearly 900,000 kilograms in carbon emissions. To further our vision of sustainable living, our cross-divisional Sustainability Working Group has formulated a framework based on three strategic pillars: "Sustainable Homes," "Low-carbon Transformation," and "Future-fit Capabilities." This framework guides our initiatives across housing development and property management, ensuring we remain dedicated to serving the community, protecting the environment, and fostering inclusive and vibrant neighbourhoods.

    【HKHS Announces Newly Elected Supervisory Board】   Last Friday, #HKHS held its 72nd Annual General Meeting (AGM), where new members of the Supervisory Board were elected. Prof Ling Kar-kan was elected as Chairman and Mr Lincoln Leong as Vice-Chairman. At the Chairman’s Dinner on the same day, we extended heartfelt gratitude to the outgoing Chairman Mr Walter Chan for his leadership over the past six years.   As a non-government and not-for-profit organisation, HKHS adopts a two-tier governance structure with a Supervisory Board and an Executive Committee. The Supervisory Board defines the mission, vision, core values, and guiding principles, while overseeing nomination, appointment and audit functions. The Executive Committee sets strategies and policies and monitors management performance.   At the AGM each year, at least one-third of the board members retire, balancing continuity with fresh perspectives. We look forward to the new leadership driving the organisation's mission of creating sustainable and inclusive communities forward. More about our new-term board members and our governance is available here: https://lnkd.in/g8WDaJiY   #HKHousingSociety #CorporateGovernance #SustainableDevelopment
