Ensuring compliance with the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) Act, 2013 requires organisations to regularly review their policies, procedures, and internal mechanisms. Our POSH Compliance Audit Services are designed to assess whether an organisation’s current practices align with the statutory requirements of the POSH Act and established workplace standards.
Through a systematic review of policies, documentation, and procedures, we identify potential compliance gaps and provide recommendations to strengthen the organisation’s prevention and redressal framework. The objective of the audit is to help organisations proactively address risks and maintain a transparent, fair, and legally compliant workplace environment.
The POSH audit aims to:
Evaluate whether the organisation complies with the requirements of the POSH Act, 2013
Identify gaps in policies, procedures, and implementation practices
Assess the effectiveness of the Internal Committee
Review documentation and reporting processes
Provide recommendations for strengthening workplace safety mechanisms
A structured audit helps organisations identify risks early and ensure that compliance mechanisms function effectively.
Our audit process includes a detailed review of the following areas:
Assessment of the organisation’s POSH policy to ensure that it aligns with the legal requirements of the Act and clearly outlines complaint procedures, employee responsibilities, and employer obligations.
Evaluation of the procedures followed for receiving, investigating, and resolving complaints to ensure adherence to principles of natural justice and confidentiality.
Review of documentation practices including complaint records, inquiry proceedings, training records, and annual reports to ensure proper compliance and record maintenance.
Assessment of employee awareness initiatives and training programs conducted by the organisation to ensure employees understand workplace conduct guidelines and reporting mechanisms.
Review of the Internal Committee structure to verify whether it is constituted in accordance with the statutory requirements, including the presence of a Presiding Officer and an external member.
