The recruitment policies of some state-owned enterprises may restrict the entry of AIDS. For example, according to Article 25 of the Law on the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases in People's Republic of China (PRC), no organization or individual may discriminate against, insult or harm AIDS patients and virus-infected people, which may mean that some state-owned enterprises will restrict AIDS job seekers when recruiting.
In some countries, civil servants and career editors began to test AIDS, and the physical examination standards clearly stipulated that HIV-positive people were considered unqualified. Although it is clearly stipulated in the national AIDS prevention and control regulations that all units shall not refuse to employ people because they are HIV-positive and shall not discriminate against AIDS patients, employers still try their best to refuse to employ people.
