Download or read book Law Relating to Sexual Harassment of Women at the Workplace in India written by Anuradha Chadha and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a harsh reality that despite of various international laws for equality as well as empowerment of women and various provisions of Indian Constitution along with various legislative measures, with the increase in the women workforce, they still are denied the enjoyment of economic empowerment and are facing sexual harassment on roads and also in their workplace at global and also at national level. In the case of Vishaka v. State of Rajasthan, the Apex Court of India acknowledging the first time sexual harassment as unwelcome act laid down exhaustive guidelines for its prevention. The guidelines framed by Supreme Court then received a legal shape in the form of Sexual Harassment of Women at the Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013, 'The Gender Sensitization and Sexual Harassment of Women at the Supreme Court of India (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Regulation, 2013' and UGC (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal of Sexual Harassment of Women Employees and Students in Higher Educational Institutions) Regulations, 2015 but the Act and the Regulations fall far short of the norms set by the Vishaka judgment. In recent times, a number of judgements have been pronounced providing reliefs to the victims of sexual harassment at working place but this grievous form of crime against women still continues to be a matter of concern. In order to curb this heinous crime, first of all, the faulty and controversial clauses in the present Act and regulations need to be considered and amended; monitoring mechanisms need to be adopted seriously; level of awareness needs to be raised among the general public and at the last Women Reservation Bill for providing political participation to women needs to be enacted.

Download or read book Separated and Divorced Women in India written by Kirti Singh and published by Sage Publications Pvt. Limited. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Separated and Divorced Women in India examines the economic rights and entitlements of separated/deserted women in law and practice in India, and explores all the laws and policies relating to financial support for a wife or child that come into play once a separation or divorce has taken place. Based on a survey of more than 400 women in four different regions across the country, this seminal work lays bare the miserable financial conditions of separated/deserted women and the lengthy procedural obstacles that these women have to contend with to get any justice. It interrogates the absence of any laws that would give Indian women ownership rights in the property and assets that they have helped to acquire through financial or non-financial contributions in the marital home, and suggests that Community of Property should be made a part of law for all Indian women. This work further challenges the conventional understanding of productive work and advocates recognition of the productive nature of women's household work. Another aspect discussed pertains to the pervasive scourge of dowry and how seldom women recover their dowry and stridhan through the law.
Download or read book Understanding Workplace Bullying written by Devi Akella and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-05 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the ethical and legal aspects of workplace bullying from a global perspective. Through an in-depth exploration of this psychologically destructive managerial technique, it identifies workplace bullying as a highly potent tool in the short term to increase employee performance. By deconstructing and exposing the dark side of workplace bullying, not as a psychological harmful component, not as a health-related stress issue, but instead as a management tool to exercise totalizing control over the employee, this book explores the ethical modalities which managers tend to cross on a daily basis to get things accomplished within an organization. This book offers researchers a thorough examination of management responsibilities and the power of enforcement strategies used by managers.

Download or read book Banking on Equality written by Supriti Bezbaruah and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It may well be surprising to say that the world should look to India as a model of gender equality. India’s banking sector proves the exception, with several women reaching the highest positions in India’s top banks, including the country’s largest bank. Based on interviews and surveys of bank employees in India’s National Capital Region, this book looks at what lies behind the media rhetoric and provides a systematic analysis of patterns of, and responses to, gender inequality in the banking sector in India. The book uncovers how gender discrimination still persists in the banking sector, albeit in covert forms. Through a comparison of nationalized, Indian private and foreign banks, the book demonstrates how the impact of laws, local cultural norms and gendered workplace practices are mediated through different organizational forms in these different types of banks to create varied experiences of gender inequality. The book is one of the first books to provide a thorough, in-depth analysis of women’s employment in the Indian banking sector, currently an under-researched area.
