Title: AIDS policy and education in the workplace. Author: Harris J. Journal: AAOHN J; 1990 Jan; 38(1):6-11. PubMed ID: 2297376.

Most companies do not have AIDS policies or educational programs. Managers and supervisors must have current information and concrete guidelines to deal effectively with an employee with HIV.
