Dear Seniors, Please clarify the following for me: Should the Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) have a third-party member (from an NGO, etc.)? Or can the company form a committee with all four members from the internal team itself?

Hello everyone,
I have just come across the following on one of the legal-based sites:
"As a result of the growing importance of the issues relating to sexual harassment and protection of female employees in India, a new section was added to the Indian Penal Code, 1860 through the Criminal Law (Amendment) Act, 2013, which enlists the acts that constitute the offense of sexual harassment and further envisages penalties/punishments for such acts. A man committing an offense under this section is punishable with imprisonment, the term of which may range between 1 - 3 years or with a fine or both. Since the amendment criminalizes all acts of sexual harassment, employers shall be required to report any offenses of sexual harassment to the appropriate authorities."
Does this mean that all sexual harassment cases at the workplace need to be filed as FIR with the police?

Several large and small corporations have introduced solutions to their employees and have adhered to the requirements of the ACT. Does anyone have any reports that such measures have stopped, minimized, or decreased sexual harassment complaints?

In this regard, there is an urgent need to review our approach towards gender crime laws in general.
