India's Fight Against Sexual Harassment

BBC World Service - In the Balance, India's Fight Against Sexual Harassment

How India is tackling sexual harassment in the workplace

How India is tackling sexual harassment in the workplace.

In 2013, India passed an Act to protect women from sexual harassment in the workplace. Five years on, has it had any meaningful impact and where does that leave men and those from the LGBTQ community? In a special edition from Delhi, Divya Arya asks how workplaces in India are tackling the problem and whether the #MeToo movement has made sexual harassment less taboo. She is joined by Anita Cheria, president of labour rights organisation CIVIDEP,  diversity consultant Arti Chaudhry and Harish Iyer an equality champion at NeoNiche Integrated Solutions.
