News: HIV/AIDS

07/24/2011 | Sunday Times (Sri Lanka)
Sri Lanka is taking a firm commitment to ensuring recognition and job security of workers living with HIV/AIDS. With 11.1% of the working population in the country dismissed for contracting the epidemic, the business community was this week asked to come to terms with the growing problem and face up to the crisis rather than ignore it. This was stated at the launch of the National Policy on HIV and AIDS in the World of Work in Sri Lanka held at the Taj Samudra in Colombo.
