Frequently Asked Questions

Ensuring compliance with the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (PoSH) Act is a critical responsibility for every organisation. The Kelp MSME Compliance Kit is designed to make this process simple, practical, and accessible for small and growing businesses.

Below are answers to some commonly asked questions about the kit, including what it includes, how it works, and how it can help your organisation meet essential PoSH compliance requirements.

The Kelp MSME Compliance Kit is a ready-to-use digital package that helps small and medium organisations meet the mandatory requirements of the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (PoSH) Act, 2013. It includes essential policies, templates, awareness training, Internal Committee (IC) training, and compliance documentation support required for PoSH compliance.

This kit is designed for MSMEs and growing organisations, especially those with 10–200 employees, founders, HR managers, or compliance owners who want a simple and affordable way to meet PoSH compliance requirements.

The kit includes the following:

  • Statutory PoSH Policy in your company name
  • Internal Committee (IC) constitution and appointment letter templates
  • Written complaint format template
  • Inquiry report template for IC investigations
  • Annual report filing format
  • PoSH awareness poster for employees
  • Mandatory IC training (for up to 4 IC members)
  • Mandatory employee awareness training (for up to 10 employees)
  • Annual compliance documentation support

Under the PoSH Act, organisations with 10 or more employees must comply with specific legal requirements, such as creating a PoSH policy, forming an Internal Committee (IC), conducting awareness training, and filing annual reports. Non-compliance may lead to legal penalties, reputational risks, and operational challenges.

Yes. The templates and materials in the kit are designed to align with the requirements of the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013.

Yes. The PoSH policy will be issued in your company name, making it ready for immediate use within your organisation.

The Internal Committee is a legally mandated body under the PoSH Act that handles complaints related to workplace sexual harassment. Organisations with 10 or more employees must constitute an IC with trained members to investigate and resolve complaints.

The IC training helps committee members understand:

  • Roles and responsibilities of IC members
  • Legal provisions under the PoSH Act
  • Inquiry procedures and documentation
  • Handling complaints fairly and sensitively
  • Preparing inquiry reports

The training is provided for up to 4 IC members, which meets the typical IC structure requirement.

The employee awareness training helps employees understand:

  • What constitutes sexual harassment at the workplace
  • Rights and responsibilities under the PoSH Act
  • How to raise concerns or complaints
  • Creating a safe and respectful workplace

This training is available for up to 10 employees as part of the kit.

If your organisation has more employees, additional training licenses can be purchased separately to extend awareness training across the workforce.

Organisations must submit an annual PoSH report detailing complaints received and actions taken. This report is typically submitted to the District Officer or relevant authority as per local compliance requirements.

The kit provides a ready format and guidance to help you prepare this report.

We provide guidance and templates to help your organisation maintain essential compliance documentation, including:

  • Policy documentation
  • IC records
  • Complaint formats
  • Inquiry documentation
  • Annual reporting formats

This ensures your organisation maintains proper records in case of audits or inspections.

Once you purchase the kit:

  • You will receive digital access to the templates and documents
  • Training access links will be shared for IC members and employees
  • Compliance documentation guidance will also be provided

Most organisations can set up the basic PoSH compliance elements within a few days using the templates and training included in the kit.

The kit provides essential tools and guidance to help organisations meet PoSH compliance requirements. However, organisations must implement policies, conduct trainings, and maintain records as required to ensure ongoing compliance.

Yes. If your organisation requires advanced support such as external IC member services, additional training, audits, or advisory, Kelp offers additional services that can be purchased separately.

Even if you already have a policy, the kit can help strengthen your compliance through updated templates, IC training, employee awareness training, and documentation support.

Yes. The Kelp MSME Compliance Kit is designed specifically for organisations setting up PoSH compliance for the first time, making the process simple and structured.
