Action against AIDS in the workplace (pdf 240kb)

Business has a vital role to play in the wider response to HIV/AIDS, starting in its own workplaces. The need is to find efficient and cost-effective interventions that limit the spread of infection and mitigate its impact. Programmes usually include prevention, especially through awareness-raising and education, and care and support.

This paper addresses the following:

1. Business action against AIDS
2. Key components and sample language
3. 10 steps for implementation
4. The ILO Code of Practice
5. Trade union action against AIDS
