Regenerating Values, POSH & Gender Sensitization
3G Gender Sensitivity, Diversity & Trust
Times of India, reports ‘Anti Sexual Harassment policies take centre stage…Companies plug loop holes, Conduct Training Courses to create a fool proof system for Women’…for the last 4 years, WCG is consciously taking the Government’s mandate forward while aligning its corporate goals with the National Goals.
After extensive study, discussions and observations, we at WhiteSwan Consulting Group (WCG) realized that a lot of these crimes could be somewhere attributed to our lost values and the lack of ‘Gender Sensitivity and Trust’ between genders.
Hence, WCG & WCG Foundation with NSS IIT Delhi, bring 2nd in series ‘International Seminar on Creating a Better World Order through Value Education’, on 20th August 2017, at IIT Delhi. You can also apply for WCG Social Impact Awards 2017

WCG started its campaign, after ‘Nirbhay’ on “Regenerating Values, Prevention of Sexual Harassment and Gender Sensitization” with in-house and open training workshops, street plays, technical innovations, sensitization sessions at Fortune 500 Companies, Corporate, PSUs, IITs, IIMs, Colleges, Government Organizations & Schools, as well as in villages and slums.
We feel that, when each one of us will become a centre of influence & spread this awareness & sensitization wherever we work or live or even in villages which we can access, it will be a great service to ourselves, the society and the nation.

Sexual Harassment Act, 2013
9th December 2013: The Act is made effective and it makes mandatory (Section 19C), for all companies to train their employees and Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) members, & report the no. of employees covered & workshops conducted by them in this area.
The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 (“Sexual Harassment Act”) made effective on 9th Dec., 2013 by the Government of India (GOI). It is enacted to ensure a safe working environment for women. It provides for protection to women at their workplace from any form of sexual harassment and for redressal of any complaints they may have been lodged. The Act was formed on the basis of the guidelines laid down by the Supreme Court of India, in its landmark judgement, Vishakha v. State of Rajasthan (where sexual harassment was first defined) but is much wider in scope now.
The Act includes guidelines making it mandatory for every employer to:
- provide a mechanism to redress grievances pertaining to workplace sexual harassment
- organize workshops at regular intervals sensitizing all employees on the issues and implications of workplace sexual harassment
- ensure harassment free environment for all customers in the premises of the company.
