Why We’re Here
Because it’s 2025 and workplace safety is not optional. The POSH Act (2013) is about dignity, equality, and safe workplaces. But true change doesn’t stop at compliance - it starts with awareness, conversations, and action.
Why the Name
We chose POSH & You because this law is not just for HR or IC members. It’s for YOU — the trainer, the lawyer, the leader, the colleague. You are the bridge between policy and change. Without you, the law is just text.
What Makes Us Different
Led by a practicing lawyer with 10+ years of experience
Over 100+ POSH trainings conducted across industries
External IC member for multiple organisations & NGOs
Practical insights from real investigations, hearings & litigation
What You’ll Find Here
Starting 14 July 2025, every company in India must publicly disclose its POSH compliance in its Board’s Report.
Under the new Companies (Accounts) Second Amendment Rules, 2025, companies are now required to mention:
Total number of sexual harassment complaints received in the year
Number resolved and pending beyond 90 days
Gender composition of their workforce (men | women | transgender)
Even companies with fewer than 10 employees must include a general statement confirming their POSH compliance.
Under the POSH Act, not reporting the required data can attract fines between ₹50,000 and ₹1,00,000, and repeated violations may even lead to cancellation or non-renewal of business licenses.
Further, under Section 134(8) of the Companies Act, 2013, a company and its officers can face penalties of up to ₹3,00,000 and ₹50,000 respectively for failing to make the mandated disclosures in their Board’s Report.
The POSH Act requires every workplace with 10 or more employees to establish an Internal Committee (IC) to address sexual harassment complaints.
However, many organizations still fail to comply — by not forming ICs, appointing members incorrectly, or skipping mandatory training.
To stay compliant, employers must:
-
Constitute a valid IC with proper representation and an external member.
-
Display the organization’s POSH policy and IC member details prominently.
-
Conduct regular awareness and training sessions for employees and IC members.
-
Audit past complaints and redressal procedures to identify and fix gaps.
-
Submit annual POSH reports and register on the She-Box portal.
As per Section 26 of the POSH Act, 2013, an employer can be penalized even without a single sexual-harassment complaint being filed.
Mere non-compliance with the law — such as failing to:
-
constitute a valid Internal Committee,
-
conduct mandatory training or awareness programmes, or
-
include POSH disclosures and records as required —
is enough to attract penalties of up to ₹50,000.
For repeated violations, the fine can double, and authorities may even cancel or refuse renewal of the organization’s business license or registration.
The She-Box (Sexual Harassment Electronic Box) is the Government of India’s official online portal for reporting workplace sexual harassment under the POSH Act, 2013.
Through She-Box, any woman—whether working in the public or private sector—can:
-
File a complaint online from anywhere in India.
-
Have it automatically forwarded to the concerned Internal Committee (IC) or Local Committee (LC) for inquiry.
-
Track the progress of her complaint directly through the portal.
All organizations are expected to:
-
Register their workplace on the She-Box portal, and
-
Display information about She-Box at prominent locations as part of their POSH awareness efforts.
Failure to register or display details may be treated as non-compliance under the POSH Act.
Why It Matters
Because safe workplaces help people thrive.
Because prevention is not a formality — it’s a responsibility.
Because change starts with YOU.
