PoSH अधिनियम भाग 1: 'कार्यस्थल' में कार्यालय, परिवहन, प्रशिक्षण या कर्मचारी से संबंधित किसी भी स्थान शामिल हैं, जो व्यापक सुरक्षा प्रदान करता है।
'Extended workplace' covers work-related travel, events, transport, client sites & digital spaces - anywhere employment relationships or activities occur.
Consent in PoSH: Focus on complainant's expressed unwillingness, not implied permission. Past relationships or silence don't equal ongoing consent.
Character evidence ("he's a family man"/"she's provocative") is inadmissible in PoSH inquiries, which focus solely on incident-specific facts.
IC recommends disciplinary action proportionate to harassment severity. Final implementation rests with the employer, but non-compliance risks legal challenge.
Strategic policies include trauma reporting protocols, bystander empowerment modules, restorative justice options & climate surveys - moving beyond basic compliance.
