Right to Lodge a Complaint with EOC and to Take Court Action
The internal University complaint handling procedures do not affect a complainant’s right to lodge a complaint with the Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC) or file a lawsuit in the District Court of Hong Kong or to make a complaint to the police or other investigating agency. If a complainant would like to lodge a complaint with the EOC, the complainant normally needs to do so within 12 months of the alleged incident. If a complainant decides to take legal proceedings to the District Court of Hong Kong, the complainant needs to do so within 24 months of the alleged incident. |
