Annual conference 2023

“Transforming safety and well-being-

what’s everyone’s role?”

By Andy Wong
On the theme of “Transforming safety and well-being – what’s everyone’s role?”, the ICE HKA Annual
conference 2023 is to be held on 21 April 2023 at Hotel ICON in hybrid format.

It is undeniable that everyone in the construction industry has been faced with a huge challenge in safety
performance in projects in recent years, and such pressure will be getting bigger and bigger in view of
the vast volume of projects in the coming decade. There is no perfect solution to ensure safety on site.
Instead, to make our construction site a great place to work relies concerted efforts from all stakeholders
from design to execution. On this premise, we have dedicated our coming annual conference to the said
theme.

The conference will commence with Mr Ricky Lau, JP, ICE Representative for Hong Kong and Permanent
Secretary for Development (Works) of the HKSAR Government, giving an opening address. Mr Michael
Fong, JP, Director of Civil Engineering and Development Department of the HKSAR Government, and
Mr Thomas Ho, Chairman of the Construction Industry Council, will respectively deliver the keynote
speeches. The Conference will have representatives from different backgrounds, including the clients,
consultants, contractors, academia, as well as the frontline. Speaker from Singapore will also share their
experience, and there will be discussion panels for deeper discussion on this important topic.
