BONELA calls for HIV law

Speaking at Tsholofelo Hall on Labour Day last Thursday, BONELA legal affairs officer Uyapo Ndadi appealed to the Minister of Labour and Home Affairs, Peter Siele, to come up with a law to protect workers living with HIV/AIDS from victimisation.

"We are worried that our government seems to lack the political will in this matter of grave concern and importance," he said. He argued that many people are being discriminated in the workplace because they have HIV.
