June 9, 2023 admin Leave a Comment

Sexual harassment victims finally get the paid leave they deserve

On November 27, 2014, the Department issued instructions via an Office Memorandum concerning the Alignment of Service Rules with the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition, and Redressal) Act 2013. According to paragraph 6 of the Memorandum, the Complaint Committee will be authorized to recommend that the employer (a) transfer the aggrieved woman or charged officer to a different workplace or (b) provide leave to the aggrieved woman for a maximum of three months, which would be in addition to her regular entitlement.

Under the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act 2013, Section 9 of Chapter IV declares that any woman who has experienced sexual harassment in the workplace can file a written complaint with the Internal Committee. This complaint must be made within three months of the incident or, in the case of multiple incidents, within three months of the last occurrence.

The Committee may, for the reasons to be recorded in writing, extend the time limit not exceeding three months, if it is satisfied that the circumstances were such which prevented the woman from filing a complaint within the said period.

In a written response to a query by Shri P.Nagarajan and Shri B. Vinod Kumar in the Lok Sabha today, the Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions and Minister of State in the Prime Minister’s Office Dr. Jitendra Singh made a declaration.
