| Resumen |
Information sheet reflecting the basic views of all Swedish trade unions and federations of employers on this major problem of public health. The main points are: HIV infection in itself does not impair work capacity; HIV carriers must be given the same opportunities for work as other people; if HIV infection develops into AIDS, its medical consequences do not differ in principle from those of other potentially fatal illnesses; information concerning HIV infection is a major responsibility of the employer, the trade union organisations and occupational health services; in jobs which are subject to special requirements of safety or efficiency, health checks may include HIV screening; HIV screening results are confidential; all forms of ostracism and discrimination against HIV carriers must be actively counteracted. |
