Noting the enactment of Act No. 5/2002 of 5 February 2002, the Committee notes with interest that section 7 of the Act prohibits discrimination in labour rights, training, career promotion and promotion against workers who are infected with HIV/AIDS. Section 4 of the Act prohibits employers from requiring HIV/AIDS tests of workers or job applicants without their consent. The Committee also notes that these prohibitions are accompanied by sanctions, as provided in sections 12, 13 and 16 of the Act, and asks the Government to supply information in future reports on the application and enforcement of this law in practice.

The Committee is addressing a request directly to the Government on other points.
