With ICC having the powers same as a Civil Court, this law puts very high level of authority and decision-making powers in the hands of ICC members. This is the main reason why training for ICC members is one of the mandatory guideline of this law. Many organisations are currently struggling with the training of ICC members due to the lack of qualified people to deliver these trainings.

As it requires a person to have an in-depth understanding of organisational dynamics and legal/procedural knowledge of this law. It is rare that a single individual will be able to provide training on not only legal, behavioural or procedural aspects, but all three as a composite training programme. However difficult it may be to organise these sessions, take them up as a priority.

Even within the organisation, have a general sense of understanding whether ICC training is being taken up with diligence. The quality of ICC training and external member will define the activities and their impact on the status of the organisation. This is applicable not only on the implementation of the guidelines prescribed under this law, but also going a step further and making this an effective initiative to establish the foundations of a safe workplace, also on extending your role and taking responsibility in the implementation of this law.

Here are some actions you can keep taking periodically: Keep an eye on the surroundings in the organisations that you are part of, and the workplaces you visit as part of your personal or professional engagements. Look for visible notices, especially information about the ICC members and existence of policy on sexual harassment activities. Politely ask for it if you do not see any notices. Attend all the seminars, talks, training sessions organised on these topics. Your involvement and contribution is critical to bring about discussions on some very important elements of male-female interactions in workspace.
