Building a safer, more respectful workplace—one session at a time!

Our recent training at the Training Institute of National Savings Organization in Islamabad tackled challenging questions around sexual harassment and gender-based discrimination, with FOSPAH trainers Ms. Meher Jamy and Ms. Zainab Sohail leading engaging, thought-provoking sessions.

Through interactive role-play, participants explored nuanced scenarios:

  • Is a marriage proposal at work harassment? 
  • Does holding back a woman’s career due to her assertiveness constitute gender-based discrimination? 
  • And if someone accepts inappropriate advances but doesn’t gain promised promotions, can they file a harassment complaint?

One participant nailed a key takeaway: we must shape mindsets from childhood, teaching respect and equality so biases don’t follow us into the workplace.

Together, we’re building a future of dignity and respect for all!
