The Ministry of Women and Child Development, Government of India (MOW&CD, GOI) has succinctly identified five parameters of workplace sexual harassment, viz., sexual, subjective, unwelcome, impact and power.
In addition, there is a separate specific regulation which governs sexual harassment in higher educational institutions viz. the UGC (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal of Sexual Harassment of Women Employees and Students in Higher Educational Institutions) Regulations, 2015.
Further, with time to time amendments, the law covering criminal offences viz. Indian Penal Code, 1860 also seeks to protect against sexual harassment by providing for punishment for offences constituting sexual harassment.
