Smokescreen or Opening a Can of Worms? Workplace HIV/AIDS Peer Education and Social Protection in South Africa

Pages 321-342 | Published online: 10 Feb 2011
 

Notes

1. Based on a workforce of 7,500,000 in the formal economy.

2. Although these may well have only limited influence within the wider management structure (see Dickinson and Stevens Citation2005).

3. Usually occupational health practitioners or peer educators in a co-ordinating role.

4. Ethical permission for the research was obtained from the Wits University Human Research Ethics (Non-Medical) Committee: Protocol Number HO50310.

5. This section is based on the research as reported in Dickinson Citation2006a.

6. One of the auto companies gives a R50 voucher each month for peer educators who formally report on their activity. Elsewhere, tangible rewards, if any, take the form of T-shirts, social events, training, privileged access to information on HIV/AIDS, and acknowledgement in company communications.

7. The leaflet drew on (commercially provided) AIDS inSite Resource material (www.aidsinsite.co.za)

8. Elsewhere (Dickinson Citation2006c) I explore the prospects for aligning peer educator and union responses to HIV/AIDS in South Africa.
