Today, I had the opportunity to conduct an awareness session with the staff of #PCDA on #POSH (The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace – Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal Act, 2013).
For me, this was not just another training session—it was a meaningful platform for dialogue, reflection, and collective learning. Together, we explored what it truly means to build a workplace that is safe, respectful, and inclusive for everyone.
During the session, we discussed the key provisions of the POSH Act, the complaint redressal mechanism, and the critical role of the Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) in a simple and practical manner. What made the session truly impactful was the active participation, thoughtful questions, and genuine engagement from every participant.
I strongly believe that real change does not come from policies alone—it comes from awareness, empathy, and a willingness to create a culture of respect. When individuals are informed and sensitive, organizations naturally become safer and stronger spaces for everyone.
My sincere gratitude to the PCDA team for taking this important subject seriously and for their enthusiastic participation in making this session meaningful.
