Workplaces are the gateway to universal access. It is in the common interest of both unions and employers to take action against AIDS. The unique influence of trade unions among the workforce generates opportunities for addressing HIV and AIDS that are not available to the employer.
This website forms part of the Public Services International (PSI)/UNISON Project to address HIV and AIDS in the public sector in Southern Africa and to strengthen the trade union response to the challenges of HIV and AIDS in the workplace that trade unions and their members face.
The purpose of the website is to inform members and supporters of public sector unions about the trade union activities in workplaces in Southern Africa. Useful information, tools and links on HIV and AIDS available to these public sector unions will be made available to assist unions in their response to HIV and AIDS. It provides an opportunity for sharing good practices, experiences and lessons learned.
