What the law requires
A legal duty — and a cultural one.
The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 — the POSH Act — requires every employer to prevent sexual harassment and to provide a fair way to resolve complaints. In practice, that means:
An Internal Committee
Constituted at every office or unit with 10 or more employees, including an external member.
Regular awareness programmes
Workshops at regular intervals to sensitise employees to the Act and your policy.
Committee orientation
Orientation and skill-building programmes for Internal Committee members.
An annual report
Prepared by the Internal Committee each year, including the awareness programmes carried out.
Non-compliance can attract a fine of up to ₹50,000, and repeat offences can lead to cancellation of a business licence or registration. This is a summary for orientation, not legal advice.
Why it matters
Beyond compliance — a workplace people trust.
POSH training goes beyond legal compliance. It creates a safe, inclusive and respectful environment where employees feel valued and secure — which in turn improves collaboration, morale and productivity.

Is POSH training mandatory?
The POSH Act requires employers to organise awareness programmes for employees and orientation programmes for Internal Committee members at regular intervals. Many organisations cover it at induction and refresh it every year.
Who should attend?
Everyone, from junior staff to leadership — with depth tailored by role: awareness for all employees, a dedicated session for managers, and focused training for Internal Committee members.
What does the training cover?
Recognising inappropriate behaviour, understanding the law, the complaint and enquiry process, and building a safe, respectful culture through case-based learning.
Can it be built around our own POSH policy?
Yes. We use your policy, your Internal Committee and your reporting channels, so people leave knowing exactly what to do and whom to approach.
Do participants receive a certificate?
Yes. Every participant receives a certificate of completion, and you receive attendance and completion records — useful for the Internal Committee’s annual report and for audits.
