In May, 2023, the Supreme Court of India has stated that, “It is often seen that when women face sexual harassment at the workplace, they are reluctant to report such misconduct. Many of them even drop out from their job.”
It further said, “However salutary this enactment may be, it will never succeed in providing dignity and respect that women deserve at the workplace unless and until there is strict adherence to the enforcement regime and a proactive approach by all the State and non-State actors.”
It also said, “If the working environment continues to remain hostile, insensitive and unresponsive to the needs of women employees, then the Act will remain an empty formality.“
It has been almost a decade since the anti-sexual harassment law of India got notified. We have come a long way. However, a lot more is left to do. At POSH at Work, our vision is in line with what was stated by the Supreme Court.
We provide 360 degrees solutions against sexual harassment.
