"It was a wonderful experience interacting with you and appreciate the way you have planned and executed the whole publication process within the agreed timelines.”
Subrat SaurabhAuthor of Kuch Woh PalThe sexual harassment of women at workplace is a highly debated topic in the society. Of late, the sexual harassment cases are being reported on a daily basis from every corner of the country. There could be many instances which are not reported also. Though the action on receiving such complaints is yet to bring an apparent change in the workplace. Primary reason for inaction appears to be ignorance of the law. Whether, it’s an ‘aggrieved woman’ or the respondent or the witnesses or the Internal Committee or an Organisation itself cannot act on a complaint unless the provisions of the law are known to them.
The Guide on The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 is simple reference book. Our endeavour is to help the people who need to use this law for any purpose. The book can be used as a ‘ready reckoner’ for every woman and others to understand the procedure and limitations, and above all for the organizations to provide a safe and secure workplace.
It covers the basic legal provisions of the Act ,the Rules and Regulations, the complaint handling process, and the measures to be taken by the management of Corporates and Educational Institutions for the prevention and prohibition of sexual harassment of women at the workplace.
I believe, this book will be helpful for all including the employers, trainers, NGOs and the public as a whole.
