The Ministry of Women and Child Development recently launched the SHe-Box portal, an online system designed to help in better implementation of various provisions of ‘The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition, and Redressal) Act, 2013’ (SH Act).
The SHe-Box portal has monitoring dashboard for Nodal Officers at the Centre / State/ UT level and District level, to see the number of cases filed, disposed and pending, including those beyond the prescribed timeline. Similar feature is built for the complainant to track status of her complaint. Further, the portal has the facility to generate reports in respect of IC/ LC of a particular Ministry/ Department/ State/ UT/ Private sector / district, to facilitate better monitoring by supervisory authorities and adherence to the prescribed timelines.
Any complaint filed on the SHe-Box portal reaches directly to the IC of the workplace concerned or LC of the district, as the case may be. The portal is so designed that it masks the details of the complainant to maintain confidentiality. Except the Chairperson of the IC/ LC, no other person is able to see the details or nature of the complaint registered.
