Sexual harassment at the workplace is often swept under the carpet. Also, it is presumed that only women are victims of sexual harassment, thereby obliterating the sexual harassment faced by LGBTQ+ persons both at workplace and in various public places. The panel discussion unpacked PoSH (Prevention of Sexual Harassment) to focus on experiences of lesbian and bisexual women, trans-persons and non-binary persons.

Among the highlights of the discussion was a general consensus to encourage workplaces to manage any ill-intentioned curiosity towards LGBTQIA+ colleagues by sensitising all employees towards them and by helping the community to understand their rights under the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (PoSH) and other policies to combat homophobia and transphobia at workplace.

“People from the LGBTQIA community undergo harassment of all kinds be it sexual, emotional, or physical, but what the world at large does not understand is that curiosity harassment is as hurtful. Curiosity harassment is when you make another person uncomfortable with personal or targeted questions on surgery, private parts or a choice of clothes, partners, etc. Therefore, it is imperative that the queer community not be subject to any harassment by virtue of malicious/ill-intended curiosity by their colleagues, friends, acquaintances or even strangers, for that matter. Workplaces, particularly, should reset this archaic mindset and make their workforce aware of the law and policies that will protect the LGBTQIA community and ensure their safety. We are grateful to KASHISH for providing us with this wonderful platform to help spread the word,” said Smita Shetty Kapoor, CEO & Co-founder of KelpHR, who moderated the panel.

“While all organizations are waving rainbow flags during Pride month, let’s ask for Trans/Queer PoSH policies,” said Nishtha Nishant (She/Her), Transwoman, an Equal Rights Activist, a TEDx speaker.

The panel was moderated by Smita Shetty Kapoor, CEO & Co-founder, KelpHR. Below are the details of other Panel Members.
