The EHRC have produced a short film for employers and individuals which explores the different elements of hate crime and why it is important to challenge intolerance and report incidents. Hate crimes are defined as any crimes that are targeted at a person because of hostility or prejudice towards that person’s: disability, race or ethnicity, religion or belief, sexual orientation or transgender identity. The guidance page shows the film and covers why it is important to report hate crime, how hate crime can be reported, sharing EHRC generated graphics on social media and specific support for Polish people living in the UK.
