We Stand With Women

9 October 2018

Over the last few days, we have heard gut-wrenching stories of abuse from women across the country. At Star, we are taking this moment to reaffirm our commitment to the central values of our company. Yesterday, our streaming platform Hotstar announced the cancellation of the third season of On Air with AIB, given the developments around the group. We wanted to draw the line on anything that ran counter to our norms and values. At the company, we are deeply committed to fostering a safe workplace for women, one that accords them the highest degree of respect, dignity and the canvas to aspire for big impact. We have in place policies and institutional structures, including the Internal Complaints Committee that was instituted early 2014 in accordance with the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013. 

We stand with women around the country in drawing the line on any behaviour that violates human dignity or their ability to pursue their dreams with freedom.
