World Aids Day: Wednesday 1 December TUC Seminar

Via SERTUC. "In June the ILO Conference adopted a recommendation, which the TUC helped to draft, on HIV/AIDS and the world of work. It is an important step in the progress towards universal access to HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment, care and support through the workplace.

This seminar will bring together government officials, trade unionists, interested NGOs and diplomats and provide us with an opportunity to examine the implications of the Recommendation for current workplace policies. We will explore ways and means of publicising it and mobilising support for its effective implementation both in the UK and abroad".
