Zimbabwe: Majority of Zim Companies Don't Prioritise HIV/Aids'

The majority of private companies in Zimbabwe do not have HIV/Aids policies while some do not regard the pandemic as a priority...[according to a] recent survey conducted by the National Aids Council... "It is estimated that over 80 percent of private companies in Zimbabwe do not have HIV/Aids policies. A worrying feature about workplace HIV/Aids programmes is the disparity between what, on paper, companies say they do and what they actually do," said NAC...Multinational companies tended to have more comprehensive programmes... Unilever, Anglo American and Econet Wireless were cited as some of the multinational companies with the best HIV/Aids policies.
