In this episode of Posh Conversations on Metis POSH Radio, Jayapradha and Anita break down some of the most common myths surrounding the POSH Act. From assumptions about who can file complaints to misunderstandings about evidence, timelines, and what counts as harassment — this segment brings clarity with real examples from workplace cases.
They discuss:
• Why the respondent isn’t always a man — and how POSH applies to all genders
• Why POSH is not “anti-men” and is meant to ensure safe, respectful workplaces
• How false complaints are dealt with seriously by the IC
• How POSH applies beyond corporate offices — including schools, hospitals, NGOs, domestic work, virtual meetings, and employer-provided transport
• Why sexual harassment includes verbal, non-verbal, written, and virtual behaviour
• Why complaints don’t have to be made immediately — and how trauma impacts reporting
