NAMIBIA SNAPSHOT Access to Workplace HIV/AIDS and Family Health Services

To understand how employers are meeting the health needs of the workforce in the context of HIV/AIDS, and to help formulate recommendations to better meet these needs, the Private Sector Partnerships One (PSP-One) project conducted a survey in May and June 2006. This survey investigated how companies facilitate access to HIV/AIDS and family health services for their employees. Human resources personnel and/or health care providers at 23 companies in Namibia responded to the survey online or via telephone. Respondents were not representative of all companies in Namibia, but were a convenience sample of companies involved in HIV/AIDS work supported by the United States Agency for International Development.
