9 Return to Contents Summary of Findings Workplace programmes – company size indicator of response level. Mostly activity based. Prevention and testing focused. Treatment often outsourced. HIV and AIDS – seldom integrated with CSI HR lacking – skills and seniority Policies – focus on human rights not implementation Budgets seldom pre-allocated and consolidated – under-represents spending Perception of low prevalence – complacency Partnerships with NGOs – often ad hoc Data monitoring and reporting – short of NSP requirements Disclosure – low Leadership – present but room for improvement

10 Return to Contents Barriers Institutional: Lack of senior leadership and management support, shift systems, production targets and lack of capacity Individual: Fear, denial, complacency and ignorance towards HIV and AIDS. Alcohol and drug abuse, information fatigue and repetitive messages exacerbate complacency Social: Stigma and discrimination, beliefs of morality Structural: Geographic distances, lack of integration results in diffusion of impact
