As per the provisions of the POSH Act, every workplace employing ten or more employees is required to constitute an Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) to handle complaints related to Sexual Harassment and facilitate inquiry into the complaint. In situations where a workplace has multiple administrative units across various locations, it is necessary to establish an ICC in each administrative unit.
