The Kerala Film Chamber has announced that internal grievance redressal committees will be set up at all the shooting locations of Malayalam movies. This committee will be formed specifically to deal with the complaints related to sexual harassment of women in workplaces.
According to the reports, the Kerala Film Chamber has prepared the design of the notice and logo for the committee and the notice, announcing its formation, will be posted at different movie locations. The notice will consist of the name, status, and phone number of the five committee members. One among the five members of the redressal committee will be having no association with a film’s shooting process.
The film chamber has passed down the notice and logo of the redressal committee to all the producers. Filmmakers have now been instructed to hand over valid documents related to the formation of internal grievance redressal committees to the producers association. The filmmakers are also supposed to provide the details of the film along with the documents.
Meanwhile, during a meeting organized by the Film Chamber in June this year, various associations related to the film industry formed a monitoring panel to establish grievance cells at film shooting locations. The monitoring committee, headed by the Film Chamber president G Suresh Kumar, had three persons each from the nine movie associations.
