Paper abstract bibtex A study conducted in East London found that only 22% of HIV-positive employees had told their employer that they were HIV-positive. Levels of disclosure were substantially higher amongst white gay men (33%) than ethnic minority gay men (16%) and African heterosexual men and women (10%). More gay men had disclosed to colleagues than their employer (44% of white gay men and 25% ethnic minority gay men had done so). However, only 10% of African heterosexuals had mentioned HIV to colleagues. Following on from this, NAT’s research project found that deciding whether and how to disclose was the issue that caused the most concern to employees with HIV. Respondents who had disclosed their HIV status were more likely to work in the public or not-for-profit sector than for private companies. Respondents who had disclosed were more likely to be taking HIV treatment, taking HIV treatment during working hours or feel that they showed some physical signs of living with HIV. For over three-quarters of the HIV-positive men in this study (77%), the response to the disclosure of their HIV status at work was generally positive. Less than one in ten reported a negative response.
