Complykaro

Complykaro is a compliance service provider formed to assist companies and organisations to implement and execute the provisions of The .
Compliance means that organisations have a no tolerance policy towards sexual harassment at their workplace, an Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) to handle complaints, regular training programmes, and a redressal system in place. A registered company is also supposed to file its policy and progress as part of its annual reports to the Registrar of Companies. By complying with the law, management of organisations can shield themselves from legal consequences and ensure prompt remedial action is taken against the accused.
A study conducted by Complykaro showed that only 3% of the organisations surveyed cared about women’s safety in the workplace. Mr. Vishal Kedia, Founder and Director of Complykaro, said, "Our belief is that more than 99.5% SMEs are not aware that they need to comply with the law, irrespective of number of employees and whether they have women employees or not."

1. Skal International Workshop
Skal International, Bombay organised a workshop on Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act, 2013, at the Marine Plaza in Mumbai on 31 July 2015. Vishal Kedia was the guest at the event.
Speaking of how his company helps companies, Kedia said, "We want to educate the industry. Our idea is basically to help SMEs (Small and Medium Enterprises) comply with law, who do not have the bandwidth to do so. Compliance is like an insurance policy. The organisation should have an internal complaint committee; they have to coin an anti-harassment policy, have to train their employees. We help them implement the entire law."
