Sexual Harassment of Women at Work Place

The book is a comprehensive, well researched and up to date work on this sensitive issue. Chapters dedicated to the definition and extent of this problem, national as well as international scenario, important judgements and recent cases along with the policy formulation issues form an integral part of the book.

The author has tried to analyze the problem from all angles- the effectiveness and adequacy of enacted laws in the country and policies framed at international level, the root cause of the problem and loopholes in present legislative and enforcement systems have been analysed so that perhaps one of the biggest hurdle being faced by women today can be eradicated/curbed.
