National Seminar on Better and Fair Environment for Women at Workplace
Chanakya National Law University, Patna is going to organize the National Seminar on Better and Fair Environment for Women at Workplace.
Date: 20th January, 2019
Venue: Chanakya National Law University, Nyaya Nagar, Mithapur, Patna
Concept Note:
Women have been the victim of discrimination from ages due to feminine character. They have been the subject of physical abuse, intimidation and threat throughout their life. Although, our scriptures do boast of respect towards women but the reality cannot be overruled with historical rhetoric. Today, women are no longer caged within four walls as the educational progress have provided them access to the areas where only men were working. Thus, the work places have become a junction of male and female employees and beneficiaries / consumers.
But here also, the women have been victim of intimidation under the traditional sadistic masculinity which has been named as sexual harassment. The power game plays major role and the consequence is horrible. The VISAKHA guidelines by the Supreme Court has been a milestone in the journey to women empowerment, which has been replaced by Sexual Harassment Act 2013, a comprehensive legislation, and UGC mandate to enforce this Act in all academic institutions. Despite the fact, that, the Act is mandatorily enforced in all sectors of work, the women are unsafe. The present #MeToo movement have been digging the earth. Of course, contradictory thoughts have given impetuous to discussion on the age-old issues.
