Safety in the office entirely depends upon us. We cannot blame others. Girls should maintain a distance from their colleagues to avoid any unsavoury situation at workplace

Don't cower if you are facing harassment because it gives the perpetrator a chance to commit same misdeed again with full confidence. It leaves a negative impact if such things are ignored

Workshops should be organised for men on their behaviour with their female colleagues. Office should have more than one girl worker so that the other girl can work in comfort
