REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH & HIV/AIDS

REPRODUCTIVE HEALTH & HIV_AIDS

The HIV pandemic has become one of the most critical workplace issues of our time. In addition to its devastating impact on working women and men and their families and dependents, HIV affects the world of work in many ways. Stigma and discrimination against people living with and affected by HIV and AIDS threaten fundamental rights at work, undermining opportunities for people to obtain decent work and sustainable employment. The employers’ and workers’ organisations have a specific role in promoting and supporting national and international efforts on HIV/AIDS in and through the world of work. And the workplace has a role in securing a non-discriminatory environment for people living with HIV. With support from donor organisations, BLF runs programmes and provides a range of practical resources for unions and workers on strengthening our fight against this pandemic.
