This study was conducted in Dodoma Municipal office with the purpose of assessing
strategies used to fight against HIV/AIDS at work places. Specific objectives were to
assess the strategies which were used by the Dodoma Municipal in fighting against
HIV/AIDS, assess the attitudes and responses of workers on using HIV/AIDS
strategy, to study the problems/challenges which are faced by Dodoma Municipal in
fighting against HIV/AIDS. Most of the literature review focused on behavior
change and increase awareness as the major solution to the spread of HIV/AIDS. The
sample sizes of 88 respondents were employed in this study to fulfill the required
respondents. Data collection method comprises questionnaire, interview and
documentary sources. The researcher used simple random sampling and judgmental
sampling design to obtain sample size.
The study has found out that majority of respondents (65%) do not know the
HIV/AIDS prevention strategies, which specifically were established by the Dodoma
Municipal to its employees, although 35% of respondents were aware on the
prevention strategies which were originally established by the Dodoma Municipal,
however lack of funds and insufficient knowledge were the major challenges which
face Dodoma Municipal in prevention of HIV/AIDS at working place. Due to the
above finding it is concluded that awareness is the most important part in prevention
of HIV/AIDS and employees should not base on ABC strategy only. The study
therefore recommended that the Management in Dodoma Municipal council has to
collaborate with other stakeholders in prevention of HIV/AIDS at working place;
also Municipal should establish HIV/AIDS prevention strategies, to its employees
and ensure that they were distributed to all departments. |
