In today’s world, where both men and women have equal opportunities in every area, it thus has been seen that this scenarios slightly changes in the field of a work environment where the females majorly suffer or feel suppressed with the male power around them, feeling the vibes and actions of sexual harassment cases, where every year over the years, this scenario has been on the rise. There have been many such famous case studies in the past such as the ‘Vishakha Case’ occurred in 1997, where the Supreme Court therefore stated the ‘Vishakha Guidelines’, which ordered to make every organisation, whether they are public or in the private sector to develop and establish a strong mechanism for redressing of sexual harassments cases which takes place in the organisation level.

The training process therefore serves a clear idea about the type of behavior which can be categorized under sexual harassment and what all detailed measures can be taken against such activity. Therefore, an effective POSH training should always consist of the following details, which are as follows:
