[Dear Mr ]()Beier,
Thank you for your enquiry and for your interest in the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work (EU-OSHA).
Unfortunately EU-OSHA has not addressed the issue of HIV – positive healthcare workers in any of its publications or addressed the issue in any statements or press releases.
Although not directly related to your request, EU-OSHA has available a number of publications which address the issue of the prevention of risks to workers from biological agents and the prevention of risks to health care workers, such as:
