  9. TAKING ACTION • Initiative: “HIV is not spread by working” • Our goal: EHPV is looking for 100 companies in Estonia whose internal working climate and personnel policies do not discriminate against HIV-positive people. EHPV wants to publicize and promote these companies as ‘good employers’ to the HIV-positive community. Diplomas with the sign: ‘Our company is friendly towards HIV-positive people’
