Certificate Course In Prevention Of Sexual Harassment At Workplace

Course Introduction

The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act of 2013, is fundamental in preventing sexual harassment against women. The POSH Policy now forms an inseparable part of the institutions, be it private or public; organized or unorganized. This comprehensive POSH Training Course thus helps one to have a holistic understanding of the legal framework of the POSH policies and the importance of compliances to its provisions.

The simplified explanation of the Sections of the Act with the help of the case laws gives a deeper and unambiguous understanding of the interpretation of the intention of the legislation. Such understanding of the provisions is necessary for everyone including the employee, employer and the ICC members. This helps to avoid a miscarriage of justice and most importantly, it helps to achieve the aim of providing a safe and healthy workplace for women.

The course makes one conscious about one’s conduct by enabling one to distinguish between appropriate and inappropriate behaviour. The sensitization and awareness on such topics may save many from being the victim of a hostile work environment which may hamper the productivity of the employees. The holistic knowledge of the POSH law is beneficial for the positive outcome of the Institutions.

This is a 10-day certificate course and the batches will start on the 1st, 11th and 21st day of every month.

History of the PoSH Act

The history behind the enactment of the Act could be understood with the help of the Landmark Judgements that have been summarised and explained comprehensively. Case laws also highlight the criminal legal proceeding which one follows if they wish to. An aggrieved party can approach the Court in case of the absence of a complaints committee or lack of faith in the inquiry procedure. The decisions of the Committee may also be challenged in the Court of law on valid grounds.

The course also enlightens about the status of the POSH Act in the light of the #MeToo Movement. With this, we realise that many aggrieved women do not come forward to speak up and file a complaint against sexual harassment due to several reasons, like lack of evidence or social stigma attached to such incidents. This also makes us realise the importance of the POSH Act, as it saves women from going through the tedious legal proceedings that may otherwise take place in the Court of law. The POSH Act makes the procedure speedy and efficient as the Act prescribes a time-bound inquiry and disposal of the complaint.
