The PoSH Annual Report serves as a statistic to analyze whether a company has complied with the PoSH Act, 2013, or not. Under the PoSH or the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, a District Officer ensures compliance with the provisions of the Act in the district. This includes receiving and reviewing the PoSH annual report submitted by employers.

 

The PoSH Act requires employers to take certain measures to prevent sexual harassment at workplace. This includes setting up the PoSH Committee, also called the Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) to deal with complaints of sexual harassment.

As part of their duties, employers are required to submit a report to the District Officer. The Report details the steps they have taken to comply with the provisions of the Act. It also includes the number and nature of sexual harassment complaints received and disposed of by the PoSH Committee.
