POSH Compliance Is More Than a Policy — It's a Workplace Commitment
What Is POSH Compliance?
POSH is the statutory framework for preventing and addressing workplace sexual harassment in India, under the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013. Compliance goes beyond a policy document — it requires a properly constituted Internal Committee (IC), employee awareness, IC capability, leadership accountability, and a defined complaint-handling process.
Why It Matters
- Sets clear standards of workplace conduct
- Builds employee awareness of rights and responsibilities
- Strengthens Internal Committee effectiveness
- Reduces compliance and reputational risk
- Builds a culture of dignity and respect
