Thank you for this question, its probably the most relevant to the largest number.🌺

If you are facing sexual harassment, recognising and coming to terms with sexual harassment is hard. Seek help from colleagues, friends, family. Remember its not your fault, ever. https://twitter.com/DorodiSharma/status/1335839579203461120
Even if you aren't sure about filing complaints, backup any evidence you have on your phone or email (photos, whatsapp chats etc.). Remember its OK to not have eye witnesses! Its rare to have cases with eye witnesses. A witness could even be a friend you confided in at the time.
If you know someone who has faced sexual harassment, support them without judgment. Most women do not report sexual harassment because of fear that they will not be believed; that they will be subject to rumour-mongering and that they will be isolated.
Please volunteer if there is an opportunity for you to stand as a witness because you saw something or because the complainant informed you of what happened. It can make a huge difference. #nogbv #prajnya16days
As HR/employer, ensure that the employees know about the org’s anti-sexual harassment policy and how to activate the complaints process. Build up their confidence that they can use it without fear that they will be victimised at work. This includes people who may be witnesses.
The employer should also ensure that complainants are providing assistance where required, which included referral services re lawyers/police if she wants to register FIR; and access to mental health services or supports if this is something that they require as well.
