    Hong Kong's friendliness to people with disabilities / BOCHK Science and Innovation Prize / Operation Santa Claus 2024

    On Wednesday’s Backchat, we’re talking about Hong Kong’s friendliness to people with disabilities.

    This comes as Paralympic athlete Ho Yuen-kei was barred from entering a Causeway Bay restaurant, after being told that her wheelchair could obstruct other patrons. The eatery’s management later apologized, promising to offer more disability awareness training to its staff.
    Rights’ groups have called on the Equal Opportunities’ Commission to enhance anti-discrimination education, adding that it was not the first time a disabled person had been denied service in Hong Kong.
    Last July, two visually impaired passengers were required to leave a Tokyo-bound flight after staff were unsure whether the pair could travel unaccompanied.
    Have you or a loved one ever been denied service on the ground of disability? And how can we make Hong Kong more accessible to the disabled?
    After 9:30, we speak to the organisers of the BOCHK Science and Innovation Prize 2024.
    And after 9:45, RTHK’s Jim Gould joins us to talk about Operation Santa Claus 2024.

    Childcare leave for parents with toddlers / Norovirus outbreak in Shenzhen

    主持人:Jim Gould and Ada Wong

    On Tuesday's Backchat, we're talking about the government's plan to provide three days of childcare leave per year to civil servants with children under the age of three.

    The measure, which is expected to be introduced in April next year, will benefit around 12,000 employees and comes as the government faces pressure to lead the way in providing family-friendly workplaces.
    Responding to unionists' calls for more targeted policies, Secretary for Civil Service Ingrid Yeung did not rule out granting more days in the future but stressed that her bureau had to strike a balance between staff morale and operational needs.
    So how does Hong Kong compare to other parts of the world? And which sectors are most family-friendly?
    After 9:45, we speak to a doctor about an ongoing norovirus outbreak in Shenzhen.
