The EOC recently launched an MTR advertising campaign to raise awareness of the protections against sexual harassment, disability harassment and racial harassment in common workplaces under the Sex Discrimination Ordinance, Disability Discrimination Ordinance and Race Discrimination Ordinance respectively. Posters presenting example scenarios have been placed across 60 MTR stations until 8 September 2022.
