EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The status of WOMEN IN INDIA has been subject to many great changes over the past few millennia. From equal status with men in ancient times through the low points of the medieval period, to the promotion of equal rights by many reformers, the history of women in India has been eventful. Police records in India show a high incidence of crimes against women. The National Crime Records Bureau reported in 1998 that by 2010 growth in the rate of crimes against women would exceed the population growth rate. Earlier, many crimes against women were not reported to police due to the social stigma attached to rape and molestation. Official statistics show a dramatic increase in the number of reported crimes against women. Women have been subjected to sexual harassment at work for many years. Unite views this as a very serious issue, which needs to be addressed and eliminated in the workplace. In the same way that members should not be expected to tolerate other dangers to their health and safety at work, they should not be expected to put up with sexual harassment in any form.
The Essay on Are Women in India SAFE?
India’s definition of the term “ladies first” is not for the development, constructive, progressive things my friends. With India, “ladies first” since decades has been about victimizing women in incalculable, brutal crimes. And with that note, a good afternoon to respected jury members, members of the audience and my fellow orators I, Aishani Sheth would not want to ...

The Term Paper on Study Of Women Male Men Societies
In this essay I will look at whether the inequality between men and women is a human universal, or whether there are or have been societies in which women shared power equally with men, or even exercised power over them. In order to do so, I will look at the writings of a number of anthropologists. In "The Subordinance of Women: A Problematic Universal", author Ruth Bleier indicates that a central ...

Future Group employs 30,000 people directly from every section of the society. The company sources the supplies from enterprises across the country, creating fresh employment, impacting livelihoods, empowering local communities and fostering mutual growth.
The research methodology consists of the sample size of 50 women employees of big bazaar, Surat. The data used in the report were both primary and
secondary data. The primary data was conducted by survey and was used for analysis and interpretation whereas, the secondary data was collected from various journals, research papers and web browsing and were used for literature review and theoretical framework of the topic
The analysis and interpretation shows that employees are more of 20-30 age groups, as the job requires more of active participation by employees. The result displays that most of the employees find the organization safe so as work with male employees and colleagues. Next the data shows the availability of basic amenities provided in an organization where auxiliary and sanitation facilities top the list. The focus area of organization is also depicted which is safety planning in most of the cases. Also it is found that it is less of male dominated. It also shows the availability of grievance cell and also that some of them are unaware regarding the same.
There are some cases, which shows that around 35% have faced or seen sexual harassment and its frequency on an average is 2-5 times. Most of the harassment takes place in verbal and visual manner. Out of the unreported incidents, most of them lack seriousness and others are afraid to report the same. Out of the reported once, most of them are investigated and in some cases punishment is also given. When it comes to reaction in case of sexual harassment’s victims, most of them are willing to support and file the case against the offender. The average level of safety is seen to be good as now day’s organizations follow various safety measures.
Women experience specific occupational health and safety problems, but their needs have not received the attention nor the protection they warrant in research, policy and program development, prevention and education efforts and compensation coverage. The concerned authority must take the strict actions against the culprit immediately when the women employees at the workplace are reporting the complaints. Safety training must be conducted by the organizations in order to make the women employees aware and Self-defense classes should be organized at the workplace or sponsored by the organization. Organizations need to ask for safety feedback from the employees in order to know the safety level in an organization. Organization should have Emergency Response Systems to record and support any emergencies across group of employees.
