POSH Compliance Course

A policy document is not compliance. This course investigates whether your POSH mechanism would actually hold up when a real complaint arrives, and shows you how to close the gap.

What This Course Is

Who This Is For

What You Walk Away With

Not a certificate of attendance. A POSH Health Report for your organization, the same deliverable format used in paid compliance audits.

Who This Is Not For

The Curriculum

8 modules. 27 lessons. Self-paced. Every module ends with a hands-on lab, a workbook, and a quiz.

Module 1

SCOPE: Isolating POSH Risk Patterns

You score your organization’s actual POSH exposure across four dimensions, honestly. Along the way: what the POSH Act requires, who it covers, the 10-employee threshold for constituting an Internal Committee, and the penalties that can reach office bearers personally.

  • 1.1 The Compliance Mirage: Why Your POSH Policy Exists But Your Floor Doesn’t Know It
  • 1.2 Symptom vs Structural Leak: What Your Audit Finds vs What’s Actually Breaking
  • 1.3 Hands-On Lab: Scoping Your One POSH Risk
Module 2

SURFACE: POSH Policy vs Floor Reality

Your Internal Committee looks functional on paper. You audit it against the five most common failure patterns, from the Rubber Stamp IC that never meets to the External Member Vacuum, and test whether a real employee could even find it.

  • 2.1 The POSH Policy Mirage: When Your Documentation Doesn’t Match Your Floor
  • 2.2 The WhatsApp POSH Policy: When Informal Replaces Official
  • 2.3 Hands-On Lab: Conducting Your POSH Surface Audit
Module 3

MAP: POSH Dependency & Concentration Risk

A process that exists is not a process employees can use. You map the reporting journey end to end, find where a real person would drop off, and surface the unspoken rules that turn complaints into silent attrition.

  • 3.1 Mapping POSH Key Person Dependency: What Breaks If Your IC Chairperson Leaves?
  • 3.2 Visualizing POSH Communication Friction Across Organizational Layers
  • 3.3 Single-Point-of-Failure Auditing in POSH Systems
  • 3.4 Hands-On Lab: Constructing Your POSH Concentration Risk Matrix
Module 4

INVESTIGATE: Forensic POSH Root Cause Tools

You run the 5 Whys and a fishbone diagram on your widest compliance gap. “They didn’t report” is a banned terminal answer. The Safe Employee test separates genuine system failure from individual accountability.

  • 4.1 The Adapted 5 Whys: Why “They Didn’t Report” Is Banned as a Terminal Answer
  • 4.2 The POSH Fishbone Diagram: Six Categories of POSH System Failure
  • 4.3 The “Safe Employee” Test: Separating System Failure from Individual Accountability
  • 4.4 Hands-On Lab: Reconciling Your POSH 5 Whys and Fishbone Findings
Module 5

CATEGORIZE: The 5 POSH Root Cause Types

System Design Break, Inherited Organizational Logic, Cultural Blindspot, Information & Communication Gap, or Behavioral Loop. Each type calls for a different fix. The module also covers housing societies, where “POSH is for offices” is the gap itself.

  • 5.1 The 5 POSH Root Cause Categories: Naming the Type of Failure
  • 5.2 The Verbal Tells: How to Identify Each POSH Category in the Wild
  • 5.3 Hands-On Lab: Categorizing Your POSH Root Cause
Module 6

RECOMMEND: The ONE High-Impact POSH Action & Poka-Yoke

You design one safeguard that makes suppression harder than filing: anonymous digital submission, auto-escalation when a complaint goes unacknowledged, an annual trust survey. One action, owned and time-bound, not a 50-item checklist.

  • 6.1 Why ONE Action: The Mathematics of Organizational Attention
  • 6.2 POSH Poka-Yoke: Designing Mistake-Proofing for POSH Systems
  • 6.3 Hands-On Lab: Designing Your ONE High-Impact POSH Action with Poka-Yoke
Module 7

IMPLEMENT: POSH Floor Accountability & Tracking

A compliance fix that depends on one person’s memory is a second single point of failure. You build floor-level ownership without micromanagement, measure post-intervention metrics, and institutionalize the fix so it survives a personnel change.

  • 7.1 Building Floor-Level POSH Ownership Without Micromanagement
  • 7.2 Measuring 90-Day Post-Intervention POSH Metrics
  • 7.3 Institutionalizing POSH Knowledge to Prevent Recurrence
  • 7.4 Hands-On Lab: Setting Up Your 90-Day POSH Implementation Dashboard
Module 8

CAPSTONE: POSH Master Pattern Report & Certification

You assemble the POSH Health Report, the same deliverable format used in paid compliance audits: exposure score, compliance gap, IC function, the one safeguard, and the calendar. Rashi reviews every capstone submission personally before certification.

  • 8.1 Assembling Your POSH Master Pattern Report
  • 8.2 Presenting POSH Findings to Leadership & Boards
  • 8.3 When to Call the Forensic Experts

How the Course Runs

Format

Self-paced online course. 8 modules, 27 lessons, roughly 6 to 8 hours of material. There is no prerequisite: the course is accessible to legal and non-legal professionals alike.

It works best run with your actual Internal Committee, because several labs ask you to verify real things: contact information, policy language, what your employees actually trust.

You keep lifetime access to the material once you enroll.

Certificate of Completion

Submit the capstone POSH Health Report and, once Rashi approves it, you receive an EvolveWithRashi certificate of completion with a unique certificate ID, issued as a PDF and a PNG sized for LinkedIn.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a legal course?

It teaches what the POSH Act requires, but it is not legal training and not a substitute for legal counsel. It teaches compliance investigation: why mechanisms fail in practice and how to close that gap. There is no prerequisite, and it works for both legal and non-legal professionals.

Does this certify me as an IC member?

No. IC member training certification requires separate statutory training as per the Act. What you leave with is a POSH Health Report for your organization and an EvolveWithRashi certificate of completion for the course itself.

Is this a live course?

No. The course is fully self-paced, with no scheduled sessions to attend. Several labs work best done alongside your actual Internal Committee as you go. After Module 4 you also have the option to book a 1:1 Pattern Session with Rashi, priced separately.

How long do I have access?

Lifetime access. You buy once and the modules stay available to you.

What is the refund policy?

Self-paced courses are non-refundable once access is provided. If you have not accessed the course, a refund may be requested within 7 days of purchase. The full policy is on the refund policy page.

Who should not buy this?

If your organization wants a signature on a training log, hire an awareness session instead. The value here comes from running the audits on your real organization, including asking real employees what they trust. It is also the wrong place to look for legal representation.
