1. Continuation of employment of an HIV+ employee until when?
2. What is your company's position towards maintaining confidentiality?
3. Flexible working arrangements for HIV+ employees
4. What will the benefits and rights of HIV+ employees be?
5. Will there be any financial, social (counseling) and/or medical assistance given when an HIV+ employee is eventually not able to work?
6. Which department will be responsible for upholding the HIV/AIDS policy?
7. How will your company inform employees about the HIV/AIDS policy?
