Aids in the Workplace: Hiv Infection
built 184 days ago
HIV infection or AIDS presently can be caused by a personal lifestyle that is incompatible with essential Biblical standards of personal morality. All applicants, staff and students are expected to indicate both their acceptance of Biblical standards of personal conduct and their determination, with the help of God, to live within these standards in their own lives. Evidence of breaking of these standards will warrant review of staff or student position. WHO,CDC, and other health agencies ... agree that HIV can also be transmitted via contaminated needles, contaminated blood or blood products, body fluids and breast milk.

If AIDS were confined to the industrialized nations, the financial implications would be grave enough. However, the main burden of the pandemic is shifting ever more clearly to the developing countries, which by the year 2000 will account for 90% of all HIV infections, and in time will have 90% and more of all AIDS cases. To the need for expanded prevention programmes will ... be added the extra demand on health care systems that are already strained to breaking-point and the innumerable costs to society as a whole.
HIV infection and AIDS are not a cause for termination of employment. Persons with HIV-related illnesses may be allowed to work as long as they are certified medically fit by a qualified medical practitioner.

Staff or students with AIDS or HIV infection will be treated as any other staff member or student. They will be encouraged to continue to work as long as they are able to maintain acceptable performance.
