Online Sensitization Program on the Prevention of Sexual Harassment at Workplace (POSH) Act

The team at Ivy Law participated in a webinar on the “Online Sensitization Program on the Prevention of Sexual Harassment at Workplace (POSH) Act” organised by LexPOSH. The key highlights of the webinar included discussion on the issue of creating a safe workplace environment for working women by ensuring that adequate standards are laid down to protect them from acts of sexual violence and harassment. The concept and definition of sexual harassment was postulated at length. Further, how a complaint can be filed by an aggrieved woman to the Internal Complaints Committee as well as matters of false or insufficient complaints were also addressed exhaustively.
