What we see online often plays a key role in breaking the mould of stereotypes. TV Shows have pushed forth in this domain, be it through the Chess masterpiece in the Queen’s Gambit or the Urdu dramedy in Chudails.
Belonging cannot be a one-size-fits all concept as people with different identities need specific support to contribute to team efforts.
Not feeling a sense of belonging has a deep impact on employees' mental healths and that is not good news for team productivity.
Belonging is a core human need, but what does it truly entail? That is important to understand and act upon.

Multi-location employers must constitute ICs at each office/region with 10+ employees, ensuring accessible complaint mechanisms.
Select an external woman with legal/HR expertise per Section 4(2)(a), ensuring impartiality through formal appointment letters.
Q1: Can we have male IC members? Yes, but 50% must be women. Q2: Training needed? Annual sensitisation mandatory. Q3: Quorum? Minimum 3 including chair.
Complainant establishes prima facie case; IC then impartially collects evidence. Standard: "preponderance of probability", not "beyond doubt".
Inclusion is a strategic imperative, not a PR stunt. It drives innovation, belonging & performance. Measure impact, not just headcounts.
True diversity delves beyond gender parity. It encompasses caste, ethnicity, disability, LGBTQIA+, neurodiversity, socio-economic background & more. Unwind fully.
Domestic violence isn't random anger; it's a calculated cycle of tension, abuse, reconciliation & calm, reinforcing the abuser's power & control over the victim
Evidence in domestic violence cases includes medical reports, photos, threatening messages/emails, witness statements, police records & personal diaries.
