Sources said the increase in sexual harassment complaints in TCS’s annual reports since 2021 is linked to recent updates in the company’s systems and processes. These updates were mainly designed to make the workplace safer for women.
Because of these changes, employees are now more aware and more likely to formally report complaints under the Prevention of Sexual Harassment (POSH) framework.
They also pointed to a trend reflecting growing confidence in grievance redressal structures and better accessibility of reporting channels, rather than a proportional rise in the occurrences of misconduct.
Sources also mentioned that focusing more on sensitisation programmes and employee training has strengthened the internal reporting system. Now, employees can speak up without fear by using official channels.
