Why we picked it POSH is the compliance founders skip until a complaint or a diligence checklist forces it, and this is a clean, dedicated explainer of the one thing you cannot postpone: an Internal Committee is mandatory the day you cross 10 employees, no exceptions.

From greytHR by greytHR 12 min read
- An Internal Committee is legally required at 10+ employees, must be chaired by a senior woman, and must include one external member from an NGO or legal background
- Beyond the committee you owe a written POSH policy, regular training, a defined complaint procedure, and posted POSH information at the workplace
- Complaints must be filed within three months of the incident, and non-compliance risks fines up to 50,000 plus possible license cancellation
