Compliance Training — reviewed 2 October 2026
Who can be the external member of a POSH Internal Committee?
The external member must come from a non-governmental organisation or association committed to the cause of women, or be a person familiar with the issues relating to sexual harassment. The 2013 Rules describe that second category as a person with expertise on such issues, for example a social worker with at least five years’ relevant experience or a person familiar with labour, service, civil or criminal law. The Act does not require the external member to be a woman, but they should have no other tie to the employer.
