Workplace Interventions

FHI has been working with employers, worker associations, and business coalitions to shape locally appropriate and effective HIV/AIDS workplace programs, including for government agencies, companies and workers in the informal sector, and uniformed services.

Through partnerships and with funding from USAID, the Department of Labor, and other donors, FHI has designed, developed, monitored, and evaluated programs that aim to keep workers healthy and on the job. This outcome is not only essential to the well-being and prosperity of workers' families, but also to that of the economy and the nation.  Peer education and condom social marketing form part of many workplace programs, along with the sensitization of senior officials, training of counselors, and distribution of materials.
