United States
Office of Personnel Management
HIV/AIDS
in the Workplace
OVERVIEW
In September 1993, the President issued a directive to
heads of executive departments and agencies which called
for development and implementation of HIV/AIDS workplace
policies and employee and supervisory education and prevention
programs by World AIDS Day, 1994. We assisted agencies
in developing policies, locating training resources, and
advising agencies on all aspects of HIV/AIDS in the workplace.
We worked with the White House Office of National AIDS
Policy and assisted with the development, assessment,
dissemination, and implementation of the training guidelines
and policies for all Federal agencies. A major part of
this effort was the collaboration with the Department
of Health and Human Services (HHS) in the development
of a model curriculum that has been made available to
all agencies at a minimal cost. In 1995, we updated our
governmentwide guidance on workplace HIV/AIDS issues to
assist agencies in establishing effective programs and
policies.
Our policy guidance can be found in the 1995 issuance
of HIV/AIDS Policy Guidelines.
Following are other Federal agencies providing information
relating to HIV/AIDS:
