Overview
This poster was produced by the Equal Employment Opportunities Unit of the State Services Commission to make viewers aware that there was a governmental system to protect workers' rights and ensure equal opportunities.
This poster effectively combines language with image. Photographs of people from different walks of life are squeezed in, reaffirming visually that 'the system' is not 'making room'.
