Sexual Harassment Awareness: Why This Presentation Matters for Everyone

Hi friends,

I am attaching a PowerPoint presentation on sexual harassment. Everyone, please take a look at this.

Hi Hanuma,

Excellent PowerPoint presentation.

Is there any legal body that deals with sexual harassment cases other than the police/court? Is there an ombudsman here in India?

Ken

Hi Ken,

Many organizations do have internal committees dealing with sexual harassment cases. If the victim happens to be a woman or from a minority, we have government-sanctioned bodies like the National Commissions for Women and Minorities that would take up cudgels on the victims' behalf. But beyond that, it's only the police and the courts that look into these issues.

Cheers,
Sameer :)

Hi Sameer,

The reason I have not chosen the police and the courts is because of their unethical way of handling cases. I have experienced them beating up a person charged with SH, but later he was found not guilty; the cops rendered no apology.

Hello friends,

I am so sorry to say that this PowerPoint presentation does not include any video clips. It was just a slide, and it won't look good to upload videos showing how to harass people who do not know it.

Hi,

The Apex Court has given specific guidelines regarding the fundamental rights of working women in the "Vishaka & Others Vs State of Rajasthan" case. Hence, we must take these guidelines into consideration while drafting the Sexual Harassment Policy. The text of the above judgment is attached for your ready reference.

Thanks & Regards,

Profound - (Subjective) For me, the background is too impersonal for this topic. Is this intentional?

Hi,

The presentation was excellent! Is there any way we can get the videos? They are not working in the presentation.

Thanks,

Dear All,

The attached PowerPoint presentation shows only what happens in the US, and no information regarding any committee or law that deals with such situations in our country has been given. It would be good if some information were available regarding the same in India.

Hi,

That was a great presentation, and thanks for sharing it with all of us. I am a trainer on the prevention of sexual harassment in the workplace, working for an NGO. I would appreciate having some case studies of experiences related to such incidents from the private sector. Your sharing would definitely assist me in conveying the information to my student group. I am attaching a file provided by the National Commission for Women containing their guidelines.

Hi Ken,

What Sameer has pointed out is correct. It is also mandatory for all private and public sector companies/firms to constitute a committee to address issues on sexual harassment in the workplace. Below are the guidelines for the committee:

Guidelines on Prevention of Sexual Harassment suggest both preventive and remedial measures. Employers should:

1. Set up a sexual harassment complaints committee that:
- is headed by a woman
- has a minimum of 50% women members
- includes at least one outside member familiar with the issue

2. Make employees aware by:
- widely publicizing the guidelines
- conducting awareness workshops
- prominently displaying committee members' names and addresses

3. Amend conduct rules to prohibit sexual harassment.

4. Ensure that no woman employee believes she is disadvantaged in employment if she complains about sexual harassment.

It is important to note that the employer or their relatives should not have a place on the committee. Criminal proceedings can be initiated against the harasser.

I hope this information will be helpful to you and the other members too. We have initiated a campaign to educate people about the committee. I would be very happy if the members in this forum help in taking this campaign forward by passing this information to your friends and team members.

Thanks and regards,

Jyothi

Hi Hanuma,

I am Sharmila. Your PowerPoint presentation was really useful, providing practical knowledge. It is essential to create awareness about sexual harassment and the ways to act against it.

I have also added my small presentation on sexual harassment in the workplace, which I created during my second year of undergrad. It offers a basic understanding, not as in-depth as your knowledge and applicability. If anyone is interested in having just a basic understanding, you can take a look at it.

With warm regards,

Hi Hanuma,

A very good presentation. But I just wanted to know, is there anything that I am not able to see in the ppt? Some blank slides are seen in between. Could you please help...

Kindly email me at rmm.kaddu2001@yahoo.com.

Hi Hanuma,

The PowerPoint presentation has some videos that are bound to be really interesting but cannot be viewed. Can you let me know how we can access them? Overall, your presentation is very detailed and includes experiential learning. Good job on the PowerPoint.

Please provide information on the video section. Thank you.
