The Labour Department has set up two hotlines and two special counters to provide assistance to ATV employees following the Government's decision to not renew the broadcaster’s licence.
The department has been contacting both the management and employee representatives of ATV. If necessary, briefings will be conducted to explain to employees their rights and benefits, and to provide employment services for those in need.
ATV employees can call the two hotlines during office hours for enquiries over employees' rights and benefits (2929 4065) or employment services (2654 1429).
The special counters have been set up at the nearby Tai Po and Sha Tin Job Centres to provide priority employment services to ATV staff.
