HIV/AIDS Manual (project proposal)

Item

Title
HIV/AIDS Manual (project proposal)
Description
This document is a Project Proposal for an HIV/AIDS Manual, designed to integrate public health advocacy into the core functions of the South African trade union movement. The proposal recognises that the HIV/AIDS epidemic is not merely a medical issue but a critical industrial and social challenge that threatens the well-being of the workforce and the stability of the economy.

The manual’s primary objective is to move HIV/AIDS awareness from the periphery of union activity to the centre of the mandate of shop stewards and negotiators. By framing the epidemic as a labour issue, the proposal seeks to ensure that protections for HIV-positive workers—such as non-discrimination, access to treatment, and sick leave—become standard components of collective bargaining agreements.
