Lowering the human and commercial costs of HIV/Aids

HIV/Aids is a major problem in Africa, with an estimated 25 million people infected, and a growing concern in other parts of the world where SABMiller operates, including Asia and Eastern Europe. Apart from its well-documented human consequences, especially in the absence of affordable antiretroviral treatment, it poses a significant risk to our ability to run our business and sustain our sales growth.
For example, it can impact our staff’s productivity through ill-health and absenteeism and also reduce the size of our markets, as well as our customers’ spending power.
To limit these impacts, we’ve developed a comprehensive strategy to tackle HIV/Aids among our staff and their dependants and help those already infected. This is now being applied at each of our businesses in Africa
