POSH and Consent: Beyond "Yes" and "No"

Navigating Consent, Power Dynamics, and Compliance in Workplace Inquiries

Date and Time: 17 Jul 2026, 03:00 PM 04:30 PM

Consent is often perceived as a straightforward concept, yet it remains one of the most misunderstood aspects of workplace behaviour and sexual harassment prevention.

In the context of the POSH Act, 2013, understanding consent requires looking beyond explicit agreement to consider workplace boundaries, power dynamics, professional relationships, and whether conduct is welcome or unwelcome.

This webinar explores the role of consent in creating respectful workplaces and preventing sexual harassment. Participants will learn how to understand consent beyond verbal agreement, evaluate the impact of power dynamics, and handle consent-related issues fairly and compliantly during workplace inquiries.

Getting every employee to attend live webinars or in-person sessions can be difficult, especially across teams, shifts, and locations. Our platform gives employees the flexibility to complete POSH training anytime, while helping HR and leaders track progress, send reminders, and maintain proof of completion.

Behaviour change

Live Action Scenarios – Real Conversations, Real Impact

Sexual harassment at work is rarely black and white. It often shows up through subtle comments, uncomfortable silences, power dynamics, body language, or situations where employees are unsure how to respond. Our POSH Live Action Series brings these grey areas to life through realistic workplace stories that help learners understand impact, intent, and appropriate action.
