FAQ on POSH Training, Complaints & Workplace Compliance
What is POSH training?
POSH training educates workplaces about prevention of sexual harassment, lawful conduct, Internal Committee processes, and support pathways under the PoSH Act, 2013.
Is this website the official SHe-Box portal?
No. posh.midhati.com is an independent Midhati Legal Aid Foundation initiative. It is not a Government of India website. For the official SHe-Box portal, visit shebox.wcd.gov.in.
Who can use the Complaint Box?
Any person seeking guidance regarding workplace sexual harassment may use the Complaint Box. Submissions are handled confidentially and emailed to Midhati’s designated administrator. This channel provides guidance and does not replace statutory Internal Committee or Local Committee proceedings.
What confidentiality standards apply?
Section 16 of the PoSH Act emphasises confidentiality of the complaint, identity of parties, and inquiry details. Midhati does not publish grievance contents and, by default, does not store complaint narratives in the WordPress database.
How often should employers conduct POSH awareness?
Employers should organise regular awareness and sensitisation programmes. Many organisations schedule annual employee training plus dedicated Internal Committee capacity building after member changes.
