POSH law and sexual harassment law compliance
The year 2013 was a landmark year in the history of women empowerment. It was the year when the Indian Parliament passed a landmark law making sexual harassment at the workplace an area of priority for employers. What it did, apart from placing the issue of sexual harassment at the workplace squarely in the spotlight, is to provide employees with the right tools to raise their voice against injustice.
Under Prevention of Sexual Harassment at the Workplace Act, 2013, employers are mandated to formulate a sexual harassment policy, carry out sensitisation workshops and trainings, and constitute a functional Internal Committee (IC) that oversees sexual harassment complaints, among other things.
Sexual Harassment Law Compliance (SHLC) Advisory was set up with the vision of empowering and enabling workplaces to be inclusive, diverse and gender-neutral in accordance with the law. We are a POSH compliance advisory body with a team comprising a cross-section of professionals including POSH consultants, workplace diversity advisors, lawyers, psychologists and counselors with over 30 years of cumulative expertise in respective domains.
