The code of conduct, issued by Kabini films, the producers of the movie, lists out acts which could be considered as sexual harassment
In what could arguably be a first in Malayalam cinema sets, a production company has constituted an internal complaints committee to address complaints of sexual harassment at workplace, if any. The producers of Senna Hegde’s upcoming film ‘1744 White Alto’ formed a four member committee ahead of its shooting, which has begun now in Kanhangad in Kasaragod district.
The initiative comes at a time when the Women in Cinema Collective (WCC) has been pressing for the constitution of internal complaints committee as per the Sexual Harassment of Women at the Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act (POSH Act) 2013 in film production sets.
The code of conduct, issued by Kabini films, the producers of the film, to the cast and crew lists out acts which could be considered as sexual harassment.
