ABSTRACT
Workplace harassment remains a persistent challenge across industries, impacting employee well-being, productivity, and organizational culture. While legal frameworks exist to address harassment, gaps in implementation often limit their effectiveness. This article examines the evolution of legal responses to workplace harassment, highlighting key policies, statutory provisions, and landmark judgments. It also explores the practical challenges organizations face in enforcing anti-harassment measures, including reporting mechanisms, awareness programs, and accountability structures. By analysing both policy frameworks and on-ground implementation, the study emphasizes the need for a holistic approach that combines legal compliance with cultural change to create safer and more inclusive workplaces.
