POSH Act compliance for your workplace
Every employer with 10 or more employees must have an Internal Committee and a written policy under the POSH Act, 2013. We draft the policy, help constitute the committee, set up the annual report and register the committee on SHe-Box where required.
What is included
- Anti-sexual harassment policy drafted for your organisation
- Internal Committee constitution order with the required composition
- Sourcing support for the external member
- SHe-Box registration of Internal Committee details
- Display notices for every office location
- Complaint, inquiry and record templates
- Annual report format and filing with the District Officer
- One awareness session for employees (online)
What is not included
- Fees of the external member
- Conduct of individual inquiries (available separately)
- In-person training beyond one session
Who needs this
Any employer with 10 or more employees, including interns, contract and part-time staff, across all offices. Smaller employers fall under the Local Committee but still benefit from a policy.

Frequently asked questions
Who must be on the Internal Committee?
A senior woman employee as presiding officer, at least two employees committed to the cause, and one external member from an NGO or with relevant legal knowledge. At least half the members must be women.
When is the annual report due?
The committee prepares an annual report for each calendar year, and the employer forwards it to the District Officer. Many states expect it by 31 January; we check your district’s requirement.
Is SHe-Box registration compulsory?
Several states and districts now require employers to register committee details on SHe-Box. We register you where it applies and keep the details updated.
