"To begin with, central government women employees can file complaints, but we are going to widen the ambit to include the private sector as well," she added. "We just need to make a few changes in our online interface. Once it is done, employees from private companies would also be able to lodge complaints”. The decision to host an online platform for sexual harassment cases was taken by the WCD ministry last October after the minister received complaints from women employees in various ministries.
