Unions and union members can play a major role in educating workers about HIV/AIDS. Unions have long-established structures that extend from the highest levels of the workplace into the community around it and represent unrivaled numbers of workers in many economic sectors. Workers trust unions to advocate, educate, and fight on their behalf.
