POSH Act Compliance: Documents & Checklist You'll Need
Gaurav Kumar

Before starting with POSH Act Compliance — compliance with the law requiring workplaces to prevent, prohibit, and redress sexual harassment complaints — it helps to have everything ready in advance. Here's the checklist relevant to every employer with the prescribed minimum number of employees.

The Checklist

Internal Committee constituted as per the law's composition requirements

POSH policy documented and communicated to all employees

Awareness training conducted periodically

Complaint redressal procedure clearly defined

Annual report filed as required under the law

Records of complaints handled and their resolution status

Why Preparation Matters

Missing or incomplete documentation is one of the most common reasons applications get delayed with the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) framework. Having this list ready before you begin can meaningfully speed up the process.

Once You Have Everything Ready

  1. Constitute an Internal Committee meeting composition requirements
  2. Draft and circulate a clear POSH policy to all employees
  3. Conduct periodic awareness training sessions
  4. Handle complaints per the defined timeline and file the required annual report
