About EDUCATEPOSH.com
It is more than a decade the law on Prevention of sexual harassment of women at work place was enacted as an able and potential tool to reduce or remove the shackles on working women .
But in reality, but for large organisations in India , most of the other work places were women and men work or come in to contact ,were the awareness of PoSH Act is seldom provided to the employees and the advantage of better work environment for women is prevented or avoided by the management.
Majority of the work force in millions of organisations and work place across India , be it Government or Private are not even aware of such an important Act called PoSH Act under Visaka Guidelines which was promulgated by none other than the Supreme court of India .
Not giving awareness on PoSH Act to employees can attract hefty penalties from the Government is by passed by many organisations by falsely submitting annual reports mentioning PoSH Act awareness is completed and regularly conducted by way of a simple letter and as the Nodal officer for implementing PoSH Act is none other than the district collector who is always engulfed with multifaceted priority activities , seldom have the time to look in to this enforcement.
We are here to point out the importance of PoSH awareness to employees of every organisation ,which was reinforced by the supreme court in their recent observation quite stringently .
We are giving the details here under for everybody 's understanding and implementation of PoSH awareness programme on a regular basis for the benefit of working women across India in any organisation .
Complains of sexual harassment and other misconduct are sadly a very common and regular occurrence right now in the corporate world.
You will find many companies spending time and energy in preventing such occurrences that's why forming an internal complaints committee and creating awareness among their employees is of Paramount importance
Ideally investigating all allegations that comes to ICC is the safest route.
Human Resource Department can't possibly know every action appropriate or inappropriate that occurs in the workplace.
However investigations are very important whenever a complaint is made which it is all the more necessary .unfortunately many employees view Human Resource Department as nothing but the arm of the organization.
How to protect the company's interest
Investing time to educate employees and implementing feedback programs, building trust amongst workers, encouraging workers to come forward with information without fear of retaliation go a long way in making the workplace very safe and healthy.
To make it simpler Human Resource Department or the senior management should abide by the laws of the country and their HR should set the ethical standards and policies that promote integrity and safety for their organizations.
