FOSPAH Addresses Misuse of Workplace Harassment Laws at SZABUL’s SSC-WEC Session

In a society where workplace harassment laws are sometimes misused, weaponized to settle personal scores or silence genuine voices; the challenge is not only legal but deeply social.

Such manipulation erodes trust, discourages victims from coming forward, and reinforces power imbalances that the law was designed to dismantle.

At SZABUL’s SSC-WEC session, FOSPAH confronted this reality head-on. Assistant Law Officer Muhammad Aliyan and Assistant Registrar Sidra guided students through the intricacies of the 2010 legislation in a dynamic Q&A, showing how awareness and accountability can guard against misuse. The discussion was not abstract; it was rooted in the lived challenges of stigma, fear, and resistance to change.

Students left empowered, with a sharper understanding of both their rights and their responsibility to ensure these laws remain a shield for dignity rather than a tool for harm.
