JSW over the years has taken various steps to ensure no violence or harassment takes place in the workplace. JSW revised the Prevention Of Sexual Harassment (POSH) at Workplace Policy in 2018 to provide the employees with the confidence that JSW believes that Sexual Harassment at workplace is a grave offence. The policy states that the company holds the responsibility to identify and prevent Sexual Harassment and to develop a culture of "Zero Tolerance". This Policy is applicable across the company in all its workplace. The revision of the policy was an effort to create awareness on the subject, often considered a taboo and encourage a ‘speak up’ culture to receive help from the organization. JSW specially curated e-learning modules to maximize awareness and highlight various nuances of sexual harassment. Using the forum theater technique, the facilitators enacted scenarios and provided techniques to handle such situations effectively and raise concerns, as and when necessary. Keeping in line with same the Diversity and Inclusion Policy for JSW Steel was also unveiled in FY19. This policy aims to ensure that all those participating in its workplace are treated with respect, dignity and fairness, thus creating an environment which promotes positive working relationships.

JSW believes that there is no tool for development of women more effective than the empowerment and an empowered woman is a key to strengthening the economy. Following the same philosophy, JSW has helped rural women in the surrounding areas of Vijaynagar to form Self Help Groups (SHGs) by offering them a range of social and economic options, along with necessary support measures to enhance their capabilities, thereby empowering rural women socially and economically.
