Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) Policy
Workplace framework to prevent, prohibit and redress sexual harassment, under the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act 2013.
Scope
Applicable at every KW Group workplace — head office, sales offices, project sites, partner offices, and at any location where an aggrieved person is present in the course of employment.
Internal Complaints Committee (ICC)
Each location maintains an Internal Complaints Committee chaired by a senior woman employee and including at least one external member from a registered women's-rights organisation. Members are trained annually.
Complaint procedure
A written complaint is to be submitted to the ICC within three months of the incident. The ICC may extend the period in good cause. The Committee completes its inquiry within 90 days and submits a report with recommendations to the employer.
Confidentiality and protection
The identity and contents of the complaint are kept confidential. The complainant and witnesses are protected from any retaliatory action; any such action is itself a violation of this policy.
