Workplace Harassment, especially Sexual Oriented Harassment is not only growing but are reported and are also dealt with judiciously.
The Government of India enacted The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 (PoSH Act 2013) from 9th December 2013. The Act was formed based on the guidelines laid down by the Supreme Court of India, in its landmark judgement, Vishakha v. State of Rajasthan (where sexual harassment was first defined). However, with much wider scope now.
The Act legally binds the employers (having 10 or more employees at a single workplace) to Prevent, Prohibit and Redress Sexual Harassment of Woman at Workplace and it mandates the employer to implement it and address the issue of sexual harassment against women at the work-place proactively.
