The Women and Child Development Department has also begun workshops to educate ICC members about their responsibilities and the legal framework. WCC emphasised that production houses must ensure the presence and registration of ICCs and that their members are known to all employees on set. If any complaints arise, they must be directed to the ICC, and producers are responsible for facilitating this.

The organisation noted that sexual harassment is not limited to physical assault but includes any conduct that causes discomfort to women in the workplace. The functioning of ICCs is being monitored through a system set up under the direction of the Women’s Commission, in coordination with the representatives from cinema organisations.

WCC called on all film workers to verify the existence and functionality of ICCs on their sets and reaffirmed that the responsibility of maintaining a drug-free and harassment-free work environment lies with both the production units and individual workers.

The statement concluded with a reminder that the ICC mechanism is meant to protect and empower women workers to perform their roles with dignity and equality.
