(a) Wherever required, appropriately subsume the spirit of the above definitions in its policy and regulations on prevention and prohibition of sexual harassment against the women employees and the students, and modify its ordinances and rules in consonance with the requirements of the Act;
(b) Publicly notify the provisions against sexual harassment and ensure their wide- dissemination;
(c) Organise Training Programmes or as the case may be, workshops for the officers, functionaries, faculty and students, to sensitize them and ensure knowledge and awareness of the rights, entitlements and responsibilities enshrined in the Act and under these regulations;
(d) Act decisively against all gender based violence perpetrated against employees and students of all sexes recognising that primarily women employees and students and some male students and students of the third gender are vulnerable to many forms of sexual harassment and humiliation and exploitation;
(e) Publicly commit itself to a zero tolerance policy towards sexual harassment;
(f) Reinforce its commitment to creating its campus free from discrimination, harassment, retaliation or sexual assault at all levels;
(g) Create awareness about what constitutes sexual harassment including hostile environment harassment and quid pro quo harassment;
(h) include in its prospectus and display prominently at conspicuous places or Notice Boards the penalty and consequences of sexual harassment and make all sections of the institutional community aware of the information on the mechanism put in place for redressal of complaints pertaining to sexual harassment, contact details of members of Internal Complaints Committee , complaints procedure and so on. Wherever a Gender Sensitization Committee against Sexual Harassment (GSCASH) already exists it must be brought additionally in consonance with the composition mandated by the Act;
(i) inform employees and students of the recourse available to them if they are victims of sexual harassment;
(j) Organise regular orientation or training programmes for the members of the ICC or GSCASH to deal with complaints, steer the process of settlement or conciliation, etc., with sensitivity;
(k) Proactively move to curb all forms of harassment of employees and students whether it is from those in a dominant power or hierarchical relationship within TIs or owing to intimate partner violence or from peers or from elements outside of the geographical limits of the TI;
(l) be responsible to bring those guilty of sexual harassment against its employees and students to book and initiate all proceedings as required by law and also put in place mechanisms and redressal systems like the ICC or GSCASH to curb and prevent sexual harassment on its campus.
(m) Treat sexual harassment as misconduct under service rules and initiate action for misconduct if the perpetrator is an employee;
(n) Treat sexual harassment as a violation of the disciplinary rules (leading up to rustication and expulsion) if the perpetrator is a student;
(o) Ensure compliance with the provisions of these regulations, including appointment of ICC, within a period of sixty days from the date of publication of these regulations;
(p) Monitor the timely submission of reports by the ICC or GSCASH;
(q) Prepare an annual status report with details on the number of cases filed and their disposal and submit the same to the Council.
3.2 Supportive measures- (1) the rules, regulations or any such other instrument by which ICC or GSCASH shall function have to be updated and revised from time-to-time, as court judgments and other laws and rules will continue to revise the legal framework within which the Act is to be implemented.
¹Hkkx IIIµ[k.M 4º Hkkjr dk jkti=k % vlk/kj.k 11
(2) The Executive Authority of the TIs must mandatorily extend full support to see that the recommendations of the ICC are implemented in a timely manner. All possible institutional resources must be given to the functioning of the ICC, including office and building infrastructure (computers, photocopiers, audio-video, equipment, etc.), staff (typists, counselling and legal services) as, well as a sufficient allocation of financial resources.
(3) Vulnerable groups are particularly prone to harassment and also find it more difficult to complain. Vulnerability can be socially compounded by region, class, caste, sexual orientation, minority identity and by being differently abled. Enabling committees must be sensitive to such vulnerabilities and special needs.
(4) Since research students and doctoral candidates are particularly vulnerable the TIs must ensure that the guidelines for ethics for Research Supervision are put in place.
(5) All TIs must conduct a regular and half yearly review of the efficacy and implementation of their anti-sexual harassment policy.
(6) Orientation courses conducted in TIs for administrators must have a module on gender sensitization and sexual harassment issues. Regular workshops are to be conducted for all sections of the TI community.
(7) Counselling services must be institutionalised in all TIs and must have well trained full-time counsellors.
(8) Many TIs having large campuses have a deficit in lighting and are experienced as unsafe places by the institutional community. Adequate lighting is a necessary aspect of infrastructure and maintenance.
(9) Adequate and well trained security including a good proportion or balance of women security staff is necessary. Security staff must receive gender sensitization training as a part of conditions of appointment.
(10) TIs must ensure reliable public transport, especially within large campuses between different sections of the TI, hostels, libraries, laboratories and main buildings, and especially those that do not have good access for day scholars. Lack of safety as well as harassment is exacerbated when employees and students cannot depend on safe public transport. Shuttle buses must be provided to enable employees and students to work late in libraries, laboratories and to attend programmes in the evenings.
(11) TIs must build requisite women’s hostels, which is a priority area. For the growing population of young women wishing to access higher education, hostel accommodation is a necessity in both urban and rural areas and at all levels of higher education which provides a modicum of protection from harassment of all kinds,
(12) Concern for the safety of women students must not be cited to impose discriminatory rules for women in the hostels as compared to male students. Campus safety policies should not result in securitization, such as over monitoring or policing or curtailing the freedom of movement, especially for women employees and students.
(13) Adequate health facilities are equally mandatory for all TIs. In the case of women this must include gender sensitive doctors and nurses, as well as the services of a gynaecologist.
(14) The Women’s Development Cells in colleges shall be revived and funded to be able to carry out the range of activities required for gender sensitization and remain autonomous of the functioning of anti sexual harassment committees and ICCs. At the same time they shall extend their activities to include gender sensitization programmes in consultation with ICCs and help to disseminate anti- sexual harassment policies on campuses on a regular basis. The ‘cultural’ space and the ‘formal academic space’ need to collaborate to render these workshops innovative, engaging and non-mechanical.
(15) Hostel Wardens, Provosts, Principals, Legal Officers and other functionaries must be brought within the domain of accountability through amendments in the rules or Ordinances where necessary.
