The PoSH Act prioritises the complainant's experience & impact of behaviour, not the alleged perpetrator's intent, when assessing harassment claims.
The PoSH Act explicitly protects against sexual harassment regardless of gender; complaints between individuals of the same gender are fully valid.
Section 14 deters malicious complaints under the PoSH Act, protecting against false allegations while ensuring genuine cases are robustly addressed.
Preventing workplace sexual harassment isn't optional; it's vital for employee safety, dignity, legal compliance, productivity & organisational reputation.
Constantly adjusting language and behaviour to fit in at work is exhausting, creating extra emotional labour for marginalised employees.
Silence around domestic violence hurts workplaces too. Recognise signs, offer safe support systems & flexible policies to help survivors heal & retain employment.
