What responsibility does a company owner have when their employees harass another employee living in the same PG? Is there a legal provision that protects employees from such harassment in a shared living situation?

Under Indian law, a company owner has a responsibility to prevent and address harassment by their employees, even if it occurs outside the workplace, as long as it impacts the employee’s work environment. The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013, applies to all workplaces, including shared living situations, and protects employees from such harassment.
