Do not for once mistake that because you will not be dealing with colleagues in the physical space of office, you need not worry about getting sexually harassed. For this you must know what acts may constitute as sexual harassment under this law:

  • Showing pornography, making sexually colored remarks.
  • Any unwelcome physical verbal or non-verbal conduct of sexual nature.
  • Creating a hostile work environment.

If your organisation does not have an ICC, you have the right to demand them to constitute one.
