The Office of the Provincial Ombudsman Sindh plays a crucial role in addressing grievances related to sexual harassment at workplace. Established in 2012, it operates under the Act 2010 of the Protection against Harassment of Women at the Workplace. This act provides a legal framework for women to file complaints of workplace harassment across Sindh. The Ombudsman’s office handles cases from various levels of employment in both public and private sectors, ensuring a safe working environment for women.
The office has been instrumental in offering a quasi-judicial forum for redressal, hearing complaints, examining evidence, and making decisions to uphold women’s rights and safety in workplace by providing them safe, secure and congenial working environment.
