   Joint WHO/ILO guidelines on post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) to prevent HIV infection

   01 January 2007

   These guidelines focus on occupational exposure and exposure through sexual assault. Other non-occupational exposure situations for which PEP may be appropriate and is currently provided in some countries include injecting drug use and exposure through consensual sex. Subsequent sections have been developed to provide specific guidance for such types of exposure and for selected population groups (such as children). The content of these guidelines includes the general development of PEP policies and strategies for implementing programmes, the overall management of HIV PEP in general terms, specific policy development and clinical management of occupational exposure and exposure from sexual assault.

   HIV/AIDS Behaviour Change Communication – A toolkit for the workplace

   01 January 2005

   To address the objective of reducing HIV/AIDS risk behaviours among workers, the ILO has collaborated closely with Family Health International to build upon FHI’s expertise and experience to develop a Toolkit on behaviour change communication adapted to the dynamics of the workplace. Behaviour change communication (BCC) is an interactive process that helps to understand the target population, develop a focused strategy, and produce tailored messages, which are delivered using a variety of communication channels to promote positive behaviour. The Toolkit provides a step-by-step approach, emphasizing prevention through education, gender awareness and practical support for behaviour change. Its intended users are government authorities, employers’ and workers’ and their organizations, businesses, ILO/AIDS National Project Coordinators, national BCC consultants and collaborating NGOs.
