The operation will provide daily living expenses of HK $ 300, with a maximum of 4,200 per person. 2. If a registered worker is unfortunately diagnosed with the new coronavirus, during the hospitalization and sick leave, the operation will provide daily living expenses of HK $ 500, with a maximum of HK $ 100,000 per person. 3. If a registered worker dies unfortunately due to infection with a new coronavirus, the operation will provide a pension of HK $ 100,000 to his immediate family members.
