As per the case facts, a writ-petitioner organization approached the Supreme Court seeking orders for the Union and State/UT governments to implement the provisions of the Sexual Harassment at Workplace
...Act. The reason for the appeal to the Supreme Court was to ensure proper implementation and compliance with the Act across various establishments, including hospitals, nursing homes, sports institutes, and private sector workplaces. The question arose whether the respondents were adequately implementing the Act and what directions the Supreme Court should issue to ensure compliance. Finally, the Supreme Court reiterated directions for proper implementation of the Act, emphasizing efforts must align with the Act's scheme and through designated authorities. It further directed hospitals, nursing homes, sports institutes, stadiums, sports complexes, or competition/games venues to establish Internal Committees (ICs) and report compliance. The District Officer was also directed to obtain a list of establishments falling under the Act's scope to ensure they are aware of and implementing their duties, including ICC constitution and annual reporting, which would enable collecting annual reports and passing consequent directions to private sector workplaces.
