The impact of HIV/AIDS programmes at the workplace: a case study at United Refineries (PVT) Ltd Bulawayo, ZimbabweNcube, Mandlabaphansi 02 1900 (has links)
The purpose of the study was to assess the impact of HIV/AIDS programmes at the workplace. The case study used both quantitative and qualitative methods (Triangulation) to determine the level of awareness and evaluate the impact of the programmes implemented at the workplace. The data was collected using a pilot tested structured questionnaire which was distributed to a purposive sample (n=60), involving all the departments at the company. Semi structured interviews involving purposively identified participants (n = 3) were conducted to clarify and explain issues in relation to questionnaire responses. The data from the structured questionnaire was analyzed using a statistical package for social sciences (SPSS).The findings revealed that the organization had achieved 90% awareness and 75% positive impact. The study also revealed that social background, individual values and religion influenced sexual behaviour, hence the recommendation for more preventive oriented programmes to influence positive behavioural change amongst employees / Health Studies / M.A. (Public Health)

Employee substance abuse in the SAPS : strengthening the collaborative working relationship between first line managers and police social workers by evaluating the Sober Workplace Programme for ManagersVan Rensburg, Maria Magrietha Janse 10 1900 (has links)
An intoxicated police employee can never keep the community safe and secure, as
mandated by law enforcement prescripts. However, limited attention is given to
harmful or hazardous substance abuse or the binge drinking habits of police
employees. Substance abuse being a ‘culture’ in law enforcement agencies and the
maintenance of the blue wall of silence as a protective measure necessitates
scientific research to explore how a collaborative working relationship between the
occupational social worker and especially First Line Managers (FLMs) can
contribute to addressing this phenomenon in a timeous manner.
The researcher applied a quantitative research approach and utilised a switching
replication quasi-experimental design to determine whether the collaborative
working relationship between South African Police Service (SAPS) FLMs and Police
Social Workers (PSWs) can be strengthened to the extent that they effectively and
efficiently deal with the harmful or hazardous substance abuse or binge drinking
habits of SAPS employees by exposing the FLMs to a social work intervention,
namely the Sober Workplace Programme for Managers. The pre-, mid-, and posttest measurements are based on knowledge, attitude, and behaviour constructs to
determine if the two hypotheses formulated were supported. The study, however,
did not indicate that the Sober Workplace Programme for Managers strengthens the
collaborative working relationship between the FLMs and PSWs to address the
harmful or hazardous substance abuse or binge drinking habits of employees in the
workplace. Alternative research and occupational social work strategies are
recommended to establish if and how the Sober Workplace Programme for
Managers can be implemented to strengthen the collaborative working relationship
between the FLMs and PSWs to address the harmful or hazardous substance abuse
or binge drinking habits of employees. / Social Work / Ph. D. (Social Work)
