Government social workers in Hong Kong supporting survivors of the deadly Tai Po fire are struggling to manage their indefinite duties, with poor communication on aid plans adding to their heavy workloads. Several social workers, including a union leader, told the South China Morning Post they need clarity from authorities on roles and duties to better handle public expectations and get help from agencies like the Housing Bureau. The call for support follows the death of a social worker under the one social worker per household initiative, who collapsed on the street in late January.
