The results revealed that employers significantly denied IIIV/AIDS positive persons job opportunities and remained hostile to them.

It is recommended that employers be encouraged to accommodate HIV positive applicants and employees who are still agile and physically able to work rather than deny all categories of HIV positive people job opportunities. Also, employers should be educated on the consequences of hostility to the psychological state of HIV /AIDS positive people and respect the HIV/AIDS Anti-Discrimination Act.
