A further aim was to identify possible reasons for the poor employee response to voluntary HIV/AIDS testing. It was thus important for this research to gauge employee knowledge, attitude and behaviour toward HIV/AIDS in order for organisations to develop strategies for effective HIV/AIDS counselling and testing programmes.enHuman Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV)Acquired Immune Deficiency SyndromeStigmatisationVoluntary HIV/AIDS testingEmployee perception and attitudesHIV/AIDS awarenessHIV/AIDS preventative strategyHIV/AIDS education programmesSocio-economic impact of HIV/AIDSAbsenteeismPerceptions and attitudes of employees toward voluntary HIV/AIDS testing: a South African case studyThesisUniversity of Western Cape
