What Is POSH Training?
POSH training supports awareness and prevention relating to sexual harassment in the workplace. A practical programme may explain expected respectful workplace behaviour, examples of inappropriate conduct, verbal, non-verbal, physical and digital behaviour, workplace boundaries, reporting options, responsibilities of employees and managers, non-retaliation expectations, confidentiality, the role of the Internal Committee and the organization’s policy and procedure.
Different groups require different levels of training. POSH training is not a substitute for legal advice. The organization should ensure that its policy, committee structure and processes are reviewed against current applicable law by qualified professionals.
Employee Awareness – Focuses on behaviour, reporting and workplace responsibilities.
Manager Sensitization – Focuses on appropriate response, escalation and avoiding informal handling of complaints.
Internal Committee Development – Focuses on role clarity, process discipline, confidentiality, impartiality and documentation.
