As enshrined in the Preamble to the Constitution of India, “equality of status and opportunity” must be secured for all its citizens; equality of every person under the law is guaranteed by the Constitution. A safe workplace is therefore every employee’s legal right. Indeed, the Constitutional doctrine of equality and personal liberty is contained in the various Articles of the Indian Constitution. These articles ensure a person’s right to equal protection under the law, to live a life free from discrimination on any ground and to protection of life and personal liberty. An effective implementation of the same will contribute to the realization of employees’ right to gender equality, life and liberty, equality in working conditions. And therefore the Company has adopted and practiced ever since the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act 2013 and the Rules framed there under.
