Kerala High Court Launches ‘SheBoX’ Portal to Help Women Report Workplace Harassment

The Kerala High Court, led by Chief Justice Nitin Madhukar Jamdar, has launched “SheBoX,” an online portal that allows women employees to file workplace sexual harassment complaints.

Introduced on Kerala Piravi Day and the Court’s 70th Establishment Day, the initiative strengthens internal grievance redressal under the POSH Act, 2013, and has been developed entirely by women engineers from the Court’s IT Directorate.

The portal enables direct submission of complaints to the Internal Complaints Committee. Justice A. Muhamed Mustaque, Chairperson of the Computerisation Committee, highlighted that the portal promotes gender sensitivity and digital transparency within the judiciary.

The launch reaffirms the Court’s commitment to safety, accountability, and inclusive governance.
