The Calcutta High Court ruled that seeking employment with a rival company, especially for better perks and facilities, is a fundamental right. The court emphasized that such action does not amount to moral turpitude or breach of good morals.
The Calcutta High Court addressed workplace interactions and misuse of the Prevention of Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act, citing the use of terms like ‘Sweety’ and ‘Baby’. The court found that while the terms were inappropriate, their use did not constitute sexual harassment, cautioning against misuse of the Act to avoid hindering women’s employment opportunities.
