In Ghana there is a dearth of studies on the economic impact of HIV/AIDS. In recognition of the possible consequences of HIV/AIDS on business concerns, a desk review of existing data was carried out. In addition, a number of senior managers were interviewed to ascertain the measures that have been put in place in various institutions to prevent and control HIV infections among their staff and to minimize the economic impact of the disease on the business. The purpose of this initial review was twofold:

i. to determine what additional information is needed to facilitate the development of an advocacy tool for the sensitization of management at the workplace; and

ii. to encourage various business institutions to assess in realistic manner what HIV means to them and to develop an appropriate response.
