A local man and a mainland resident have been charged over conspiring to produce and submit a false employment contract to government departments to secure a non-resident worker permit (‘blue card’) for the mainland man, the Public Security Police Force (PSP) revealed yesterday during the regular police forces press conference.
According to a PSP spokesperson, the case started to become apparent after the force found the suspicious border-crossing activity, with the blue card holder who was allegedly working for a trading company as a repairman having stayed very few days in Macau and exhibiting random border-crossing activity not consistent with the man’s alleged job.
Further investigation revealed that the 42-year-old from the mainland, who has held a blue card since 2020, has never performed any work for his employer and has never received any wages over a period of three years.
It was also found that he and the company owner had agreed, through the help of a third person, to have a false employment contract signed so that the mainland man could obtain a blue card and easily cross the border into Macau. The owner of the company said that his motivation was to secure his imported labor quota.
Both have been sent to the Public Prosecutions Office to be charged with the crime related to document forgery.
