PoSH Compliance Documentation

Maintaining comprehensive documentation on the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (PoSH) is critical for organizations in India. This documentation not only ensures compliance with the PoSH Act, 2013 but also fosters a safe and respectful work environment for employees.

A strong foundation for PoSH compliance is ensuring employees have access to a well-functioning PoSH Committee and a clear understanding of the complaint redressal process.

PoSH Compliance Documentation

01 PoSH Committee Formation

A well-crafted PoSH Internal Committee (IC) constitution serves as the cornerstone for fostering a safe, respectful, and supportive workplace environment. It delineates the structure, roles, responsibilities, and procedures that guide the IC in addressing cases of workplace harassment effectively.

By clearly defining the mandate and functions of the IC, the constitution ensures transparency, accountability, and consistency in handling sensitive issues.

“Gender diversity can lead to 25% revenue growth.”

The IC, comprising at least three internal members and one external practitioner, acts as a quasi-judicial authority, making final case decisions.

Membership criteria require a senior female leader to head the IC, an external neutral member, and a gender-balanced composition. Adhering to PoSH Act guidelines during IC formation is crucial to avoid legal repercussions.

Establishing a PoSH Committee is crucial for ensuring workplace safety and compliance with legal regulations. This committee serves as the frontline defense against sexual harassment incidents, providing a structured approach to address complaints effectively.

By streamlining the committee formation process, organizations can promptly respond to harassment issues, fostering a culture of trust and respect among employees.

02 PoSH Annual Report Filing

The PoSH Annual Report functions as a crucial metric for assessing a company’s adherence to the PoSH Act, 2013. Under this legislation, a District Officer is responsible for overseeing compliance within the district, which entails reviewing the PoSH annual report submitted by employers.

Employers are mandated by the PoSH Act to implement measures to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace, such as establishing the PoSH Committee, also known as the Internal Committee (IC), to handle harassment complaints.
