Under the Sex Discrimination Ordinance (SDO), sexual harassment covers the sexual harassment of both men and women as well as persons of the same sex.

Sexual harassment may involve uninvited and unwelcome physical, visual, verbal or non-verbal conduct of a sexual nature that makes the person being sexually harassed feel offended, humiliated or intimidated, or which creates a hostile or intimidating environment.

One single incident can constitute sexual harassment. It is not necessary for there to be a series of incidents.

You may refer to the Guidelines and online tutorial for Students and Staff and Policy and Procedures on the website of the Committee Against Sexual Harassment (CASH):

You may lodge a complaint with the Committee Against Sexual Harassment (CASH) if you think that you have been sexually harassed or if you have witnessed any act of sexual harassment covered by the relevant policy. For more details, please

We also provide an anonymous reporting form for members in the community to report sexual harassment cases without disclosing their identity.
