Event Description
It is an important law introduced to protect women from sexual harassment at the workplace and ensure a safe, secure, and respectful working environment. The Act promotes gender equality, dignity, and equal opportunities for women. It prohibits any form of sexual harassment and provides a proper mechanism for women to report complaints and seek justice. It also makes it mandatory for organizations with 10 or more employees to establish an Internal Committee to address complaints. The Act encourages awareness, mutual respect, and professional behaviour among employees. Every individual has a responsibility to respect others and contribute towards creating a workplace free from harassment, discrimination, and inequality. A safe workplace is not just a right but everyone's responsibility.
