Best Prevention of Sexual Harassment Policy
It is no more an option to be PoSh Compliant : It is a Mandate - Are you yet?

Setting up an Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) and appointing external members is a crucial step in ensuring compliance with the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (PoSH) Act in India which mandated every organisation to have prevention, prohibition and redressal mechanisms of sexual harassment.

What is the role of this committee?

• - Act on complaints of sexual harassment internally, with the powers of a civil court.
• - Maintain documents and records of such complaints.
• - It is a great power and an equally great responsibility.
• - Establish support for victims and ensure non retaliation to all parties involved.
• - Implement measures to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace.
• - Ensure timely trainings are conducted for employees, ICC members and senior leadership.
• - Help in continuous improvement of the process and implementation of measures to prevent sexual harassment at workplace.

The PoSH Act mandates that your Internal Committee (IC) has an independent member committed to the cause of prevention of sexual harassment who is not an employee in your organization and is suitably well-versed in the areas of the law and women's welfare. In addition to being an external member & carrying out committee activities, this person will also help in investigating complaints & ensure un-biased procedure that is thoroughly documented.

So the important questions are :

1. Where do you start?
2. Who do you pick?
3. How do you train them?
4. What is the investigation process to be followed?
