This first HR conclave of the Centre for Management Studies (CMS), NALSAR sought to map the importance of sexual harassment prevention, prohibition and redress for creating an inclusive and enabling work environment in corporations. This obligation, now legally mandated by the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013, is perhaps best articulated in a management course run in a law school.
The event saw stalwarts from the industry, such as Ms. Sunita Cherian, Prof. N L Mitra and Mr. Pankaj Dubey, engage in deep discussions about the meaning of their obligations and the actualisation of safe spaces, with eminent legal scholars and practitioners like Ms. Indira Jaising, Ms. Ved Kumari and Ms. Kalpana Kannabiran.
