By: WE Staff | Friday, 30 August 2024
The Ministry of Women and Child Development in India has launched the SHe-Box portal, a centralized platform for women to register and monitor complaints of workplace sexual harassment. The platform, launched by Union Minister Smt. Annpurna Devi aims to make workplaces safer for women in both the public and private sectors.
The launch event was organized in Delhi with the presence of the Minister of State for Women and Child Development Smt. Savitri Thakur and Secretary for Women and Child Development Shri Anil Malik and other Ministry officials. The upgraded version and new website of the SHe-Box (Sexual Harassment Electronic-Box) is a significant step towards women's empowerment and creating a safer workplace.
The SHe-Box portal is a centralized platform for filing and tracking complaints related to Internal Committees (ICs) and Local Committees (LCs) in India. It ensures timely processing, redressal, and a streamlined process for stakeholders. It will be a real-time monitoring portal for complaints with a designated nodal officer. The new website aims to create a cohesive visual identity across digital platforms, enhancing government engagements and brand presence as digital platforms become primary citizen contact points. The portal ensures that it won't let the personal information be publicly accessible and register complaints safely. The Indian government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, aims to achieve "Viksit Bharat" by 2047 as it reaches 100 years of Indian Independence. In order to achieve this goal, the government has prioritized women-led development in the past decades promoting inclusive growth.
Union Minister Annpurna Devi mentioned, "This initiative is a critical step forward in providing a more efficient and secure platform for addressing workplace-related sexual harassment complaints. It furthers the government's commitment to creating a safer and more inclusive working environment for women across India."
