Hi,
What needs to be done when there is sexual harassment by the managing director (MD) who is also the promoter and owner of the company? There is no proper mechanism to report, and HR, or all employees, are just puppets. In fear that I might inform others, they terminated me without any notice and have prepared some false allegations against me.

Addressing Sexual Harassment in the Workplace
1. Sexual harassment is a serious issue. A company needs to protect the dignity of women at any cost. You can take necessary steps under the Sexual Harassment at Workplace Act. The brief details of the procedure are given [here](https://labourlawhub.com/labour-acts/sexual-harassment-of-women-at-workplace-act-2013). Otherwise, you can simply lodge an FIR at the police station.
2. Since you have already been terminated, you will not be able to raise a dispute under the Sexual Harassment at Workplace Act. The only option remaining is to file an FIR.
3. However, regarding your illegal termination, you can send a notice to your employer asking them to withdraw the termination. If that does not work, you can raise the dispute before the Labour Commissioner, and ultimately, you will have to raise the dispute before the Labour Court under the ID Act (assuming you fall within the category of 'workmen').
