Makes
it mandatory for members to implement ‘The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace’ (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal)
Act 2013 (PoSH)
Producers
Guild of India at its Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM)
on
14th November, 2018 in Mumbai unanimously passed a resolution to
amend its by-laws thereby making
it mandatory for all those members who fall under the purview of the The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention,
Prohibition and Redressal) Act 2013 (PoSH),
to implement the requisite
laws including constitution of Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) and accordingly submit a declaration to the Producers
Guild of India confirming enforceability of
necessary
PoSH guidelines within their organisation.
Prior
to the EGM, Producers Guild of India also conducted a workshop through a
specialized external agency
which made a comprehensive presentation highlighting various facets and
provisions required to be
statutorily executed under the PoSH Act 2013. The
objective of the EGM along with the
workshop was not only to educate members on the legal provisions of the PoSH
Act 2013 but also sensitize them about the growing need and
urgency to institute and implement robust processes
at their workplaces.
President
of the Producers Guild of India, Siddharth Roy Kapur stated that “It is
incredibly heartening to see the
unanimous support that our members have extended towards the initiatives taken by the Guild to help make workplaces in our
industry safe spaces for women. We are committed
to working closely with our members to ensure complete compliance with PoSH guidelines across the industry.”
