POSH Act, 2013

Prevention of Sexual Harassment at Workplace

The Act requires every workplace to prevent sexual harassment, constitute an Internal Complaints Committee (ICC), and complete inquiry in a time-bound manner. Local Complaints Committees exist at district level for workplaces that need them.

Sheboxindia conducts awareness training for employers, employees and ICC members. We cover definitions, employer duties, complaint timelines, the independence of the committee, and the principle that inquiry must be confidential, fair and free of retaliation.
