Partners for
Law in
Development
(PLD) has
developed a
set of two posters,
both available
in Hindi and
English, on
sexual
harassment
of women at
the workplace.
The first
addresses
common myths
and corresponding
facts relating
to workplace
harassment and
the law.
The second
provides a
brief overview
of the content
of the
legislation,and
answers common
questions such
as what is
sexual
harassment
and what can
be done for
its redress.
These are
written in
simple
language to
make them
accessible
even to
persons
without a
legal
background
and are
attractive in
their
appearance.
The posters
are useful for
women,
service-providers,
employers and
the general
public, to put
a new
legislation
into practice.
They
also enable
employers to
discharge
their
statutory
obligations on
building awareness
and
information
dissemination
among their
workers on the
new law.
The specifications of the posters
are 30" x 20",
and are easily
readable.
PLD
has also
released a
comprehensive
resource book Karyasthal
Par Mahilaon
Ka Yaun
Utpeedan’
on the Sexual
Harassment of
Women at the
Workplace
Act.
Written
in simple
Hindi, it is
accessible to
grassroots
workers,
committee
members and
lawyers alike,
and enables
implementation
of the Act in
a gender-just
manner. The
guide explains
the provisions
of the
legislation,
and also
administrative
and civil
procedures not
spelt out in
the Act, but
necessary to
conduct
inquiries as
per the rules
of natural
justice. In
addition, it
also contains
in Hindi: the
text of the
Act, the Rules
and the
Vishaka
judgment,
along with
common myths
and realities
associated
with sexual
harassment at
the
workplace.
