Impact of Corporate Social Responsibility for Deal and Preventing HIV/AIDS at Working Place

HIV/AIDS had developed into a major threat that had a devastating effect on human resources and economies throughout the world. The corporate sector had woken up to this threat and was engaged in various HIV/AIDS related corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts to help the victims and spread awareness. Workplace policies aim to manage sensitive issues, such as confidentiality of medical information and continuation of employment for HIV- positive staff, and assure that all testing and counseling services are performed on a voluntary rather than mandatory basis. Many prominent companies have already formalized their policies and programmes related to HIV/AIDS in the workplace.
