Workshop on “Workplace Intervention for HIV Prevention

CIRCULAR

Goa State AIDS Control Society in collaboration with Inspectorate of Factories & Boilers and Green Triangle Society is organizing a Workshop on “Workplace Intervention for HIV Prevention”, on Friday 19th August 2011 from 10 to 13.30 hrs. at Conference hall of Institute of Safety, Occupational Health and Environment, Inspectorate of Factories & Boilers, Altinho, Panaji Goa.

HIV/AIDS is a major threat to the world of work. It has shown maximum impact on the most productive segment of the labour force. In countries with high HIV prevalence rates, it has cut the supply of labour and slashed income of workers, adversely affected enterprise performance and national economies.

HIV/AIDS affects fundamental rights at work, particularly with respect to discrimination and stigmatization of workers and people living with and affected by HIV/AIDS. Stigma and discrimination at the workplace gets reflected in the form of loss of employment and livelihood opportunities in addition to ostracism and seclusion faced by workers either due to known or presumed HIV status.

The threat of HIV to the Indian working population is evident from the fact that nearly 90% of the reported HIV infections are from the most productive age group of 15-49 years.

India has a working population of over 400 million, 93% of whom are in the informal economy. The informal/unorganized sector labour is hard to reach and is characterized by low literacy, negligible social protection benefits, difficult working conditions, poor health seeking 5orporat and limited access to health care services.

A large number of people migrate, both internally as well as overseas in search of better employment/livelihood opportunities. Though not all migrant workers are at equal risk, the process of migration enhances vulnerability to infections such as HIV, particularly to those who are single, stay away from families for long durations, and work under difficult conditions.

Expanding HIV/AIDS policy and programmes in the world of work is a key component under the mainstreaming strategy in the National AIDS Control Programme phase-III (2007-2012).

It was observed that a national policy guideline on HIV/AIDS interventions in the world of work would be of immense value.

The organizers extend you an invitation for the programme and look forward to your active participation. There is no participation fee since the program is being sponsored by Goa State AIDS Control Society.

Since seats are limited ( MAX 50), kindly confirm your participation SMS /Email /FAX latest by 18th August 2011 with Shri Kishor Dhume Cell 9403880500 Tel no. 2221237, TEL/ Fax 2232446 Email gtstrg@gmail.com

MANAGING STRESS In Life & at Work

Green Triangle Society

In association with

Inspectorate of Factories & Boilers

Is organizing

One day Program on

MANAGING STRESS  In Life & at Work

9th July 2011, 10am onwards, Hotel Manosahnti Panaji

INTRODUCTION

In today's social climate stress is something that we just tend to accept as a part of our home and work environment. We are taught that one must learn to relax and take charge of one's reactions to external events, people and factors. In this way one will find peace and remain in proactive control over the emotions that tend to get the better of us throughout our  day. However dealing with stress in an effective and efficient manner goes beyond simple relaxation techniques and into the realm of effective stress management strategies

 
Effective stress maintenance involves managing what you eat, how you think, the manner you treat your body, what actions you take on a consistent basis, how you deal with social interactions and what you tend to avoid doing. These key factors of stress management are the foundational blocks that will help you to build harmony with yourself, others and your immediate environment. Cultivate them and apply them into your daily routine, and you will find bliss where others only find havoc and mayhem.

Stress-less Mindset

In a lot of ways stress is only a perspective; or in other words an illusory representation that we create of an event or circumstance in our minds. We either see these events in a positive light or we feel that we have little control, therefore the consequences of the circumstances tend to overwhelm us- as a result our stress levels are intensified. By learning how to control the mind, you will also learn how to manage your stress levels more effectively. This Program will assist you with managing your personal psychology

Stress-less Social Interactions

We live in a world of social interactions that can either promote our wellbeing or hurt us in ways that create stress and bitter feelings. Managing our stress levels isn't only about ourselves. It is also importantly about managing the relationships and interactions with other people. This Program will help manage your stress levels through interactive with others.

Stress-less Nutrition

Managing our daily levels of stress always begins with our food indulgences. There are many foods that we consume regularly that can aggravate and elevate stress levels quite considerably. On the other hand, there are also nutrient rich foods that tend to settle the body and naturally calm the mind, thus assisting with the reduction in stress levels and allowing greater clarity of thought at times when our emotions tend to get out of hand. This Program will give you some nutritional suggestions to assist you with your stress management goals and objectives.

Stress-less Body

Our body is the vehicle that keeps us going and moving forward throughout our day. However, when it comes to stress it is our body that suffers the most from the consequences of our constant destructive emotions. As a result our body responds in negative and lethargic ways that could potentially lead to health concerns in the future. It is our responsibility to read our bodily signs and balance rest, activity, work and play appropriately. This program will give you suggestions for a stress-free body
