Kurzbeschreibung:
This report presents the findings of a legal capacity-building project conducted during 2015-2016 to empower women garment workers in Bengalaru (Bangalore), Karnataka to challenge sexual harassment and violence at work.
This report evidences the high levels of sexual harassment and violence suffered by women garment workers in Bangalore and the failure of current internal grievance procedures to effectively investigate complaints and sanction perpetrators. Following a Roundtable with State policy makers and government officials in March 2016, this report makes 9 concrete recommendations for action to improve implementation of the Prevention of Sexual Harassment Act and to combat the unacceptable levels of sexual harassment and violence suffered by women garment workers on a daily basis. Although focused on one State, the findings and recommendations made in this report have relevance beyond Karnataka given the levels of violence experienced by women garment workers at other garment and textile sector hubs in both Tamil Nadu and Delhi.
