HIV/AIDS and the temporary employment service industry

M.B.A. / HIV/AIDS and the impact of this disease on the bottom line of companies is currently a very topical issue. This study deals with the economic impact of HIV/AIDS on companies, if they make use of the services of temporary employment service providers. The current impact of the disease on companies and the state of the temporary employment services industry in South Africa was analysed, based on existing literature. As part of the study a survey was conducted to determine the perceptions that currently exist in the market with regards to the use of temporary employment service providers and the impact of HIV/AIDS on companies. The results from the study showed that companies could obtain advantages from using temporary employment service providers. The study however further found that even though companies understood that there could be economic advantages for them in using temporary employment services, they were still reluctant to do so. Companies further indicated that the impact of HIV/AIDS on their bottom line would increasingly have a more negative impact over the next ten years.
