The Expanding Reach Of The POSH Act: Same-Sex Harassment, Virtual Workplaces And Inter Departmental Accountability
The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013
(the "POSH Act") represents a landmark initiative enacted to fill a legislative vacuum in
safeguarding dignity and rights of persons in professional workplaces. The objective of the POSH
Act is two-fold, providing redressal to women who are subject to harassment, and preventing and
prohibiting harassment in the workplace.
