World AIDS Day presents a great opportunity for workplaces to re-affirm their commitment to the wellbeing of their employees.

Observed annually on 1 December, World AIDS Day holds profound significance as a day of global unity and reflection on the impact of the HIV/AIDS epidemic.
As we approach World AIDS Day in 2023, it presents a great opportunity for workplaces to re-affirm their commitment to the wellbeing of their employees and the overall health of their organisation's environment.
On this day, employers can consider various avenues to raise awareness and engage their employees in meaningful ways. One impactful option is to organise HIV-related talks and workshops for employees. These sessions can serve as an educational platform, dispelling myths, reducing stigma, and providing essential information about HIV and AIDS.
By facilitating these discussions, workplaces can foster a better understanding of the issues surrounding HIV, help to prevent the spread of the virus as well as inspire a more empathetic and supportive work environment.
SNEF encourages employers to take the lead by pledging and adopting the three-tier approach, aimed to create a more inclusive and healthier work environment.
By supporting the three-tier approach on World AIDS Day, we create a ripple effect that extends beyond the immediate workplace. It becomes a demonstration of social responsibility, compassion, and a commitment to fostering healthier and more inclusive workplaces.
