1 Ancillary workers’ dormitories are dormitories located within the factory building that house workers employed by the owner or lessee of the factory, as well as workers who work on-site at the subject factory.
2 Secondary workers’ dormitories are dormitories located within the factory that can house workers who are not employed by the owner or lessee of the factory; as well as both on-site and off-site workers.
3 Ancillary/secondary uses support the parent industrial/warehouse operations conducted within the same development (e.g. ancillary/secondary workers’ dormitory, ancillary office, meeting room, toilets, M&E services, industrial canteen, showroom, and childcare centre).
4 Purpose-built dormitories are solely used to house foreign workers. Many of them are commercially run and contain facilities such as shops and minimarts to meet the workers’ social and recreational needs outside work.
