Obviously, this is mandatory if any female employee works at your organization. The Vishakha Act (dealing with sexual harassment in the workplace) provides comprehensive details about this act that you can find on the internet. I recommend incorporating this act into your office rules promptly.

I would like to introduce myself as a development professional and advocate for women's and children's rights for the last 15 years. I am currently looking for opportunities to sensitize employees and ICC members under the compliance necessity of the new labor law 2013 on the prevention of sexual harassment of women in the workplace. I am sure that you are already aware of the compliance requirements of the new labor law 2013, such as the law requiring every organization with 10 or more employees to carry out sensitization programs for employees and to appoint an 'external member'. This includes capacity-building programs, orientations, and workshops for the complaints committee on the technical aspects of the law. Non-compliance with the law can lead to reputational hazards, fines, and in the case of repeat offenses, cancellation of the business license. If interested to talk further, you can reach me at [Phone Number Removed For Privacy Reasons].
Thanking you,

Legal Compliance with the Act
Every establishment is legally bound to incorporate the guidelines of the Act in its entirety, irrespective of the gender of the employees. This law does not imply that in the absence of women employees, your organization does not need to comply with the law. Women as clients, visitors, guests, or any other stakeholders may have to frequent your workplace. This law is applicable to every organization/establishment even if it employs a single person, directly or indirectly.
Thanks,
