Yor friend have to apply for a visit visa with the following documents:
1. Passport or travel document valid for at least six (6) months at the time of filing;
2. Two passport-size photos;
3. Confirmed return airline ticket;
It seems that the visa should be applied through a travel agency.

Mr.JOy(Philippines) replied:

Hello..As a Filipino citizen and a passport holder, you're a visa exempt and able to enter Hongkong and stay there for 14 days,same thing when you go to Macau...But, if you want to stay there over 14 days, then you have to verify the validity of your current working visa..

Oct. 31,2009 00:30
Mrs.Gabor(Philippines) replied:

hi Mr. Joy!i dont know how to verify the validity of my working visa,can you please help me what numbers should i contact to ask about the validity of my working visa.im hoping for your response.thanks!

Oct. 31,2009 07:09
Mr.Joy(Philippines) replied:

Hello...Every visa whatever type it is,has been fixed on one of the pages of our passport or maybe a small booklet or like a passbook...So, on it you can read its validity..When it was issued, the type of your visa and its expiry date..So, if it's already passed today's date means it has been expired..If not, so it is still valid and you can still use it to enter Hongkong and back to your former employer...But, if it's already expired, you can still enter Hongkong without a visa because Phil. passport holder is visa free to that place and you can stay there for 14 days....Hope this will answer your question..

I think your husband can apply for a work visa dependent on yours to stay in China as long as you can, but he will be not allowed to work in China with the dependent work visa.

How many hours should I spend in HK before returning to GZ to use my 2nd Entry? Is there other requirements I will need at the immigration in HK when I will come here in GZ aside from my visa & passport? Thank you very much

Even several minutes in Hk will be enough for your 2nd entry to Guangzhou.
I think the passport and visa are enough for you to enter China.
