The Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) Act, formally known as the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013, is a landmark legislation in India aimed at creating safe and secure working environments for women. Enacted in response to the increasing recognition of the pervasive issue of workplace sexual harassment, the POSH Act mandates the establishment of Internal Complaints Committees (ICCs) in organizations and prescribes procedures for addressing complaints of sexual harassment. It defines sexual harassment broadly, encompassing physical, verbal, and non-verbal conduct, and imposes strict penalties for violations. By promoting awareness, prevention, and prompt redressal, the POSH Act seeks to uphold the dignity and equality of women in the workplace, fostering a culture of respect and inclusion.
