What is HIV Infection

The right to work is one of the basic human rights guaranteed in most modern states by the constitution as the highest legal act. Every person who is legally capable has the right to work and that right cannot be denied. However, in practice this is not the case. There are particularly endangered categories of the population who, despite constitutional and legal guarantees, cannot exercise their right to work due to various personal characteristics and traits. The basis for discrimination can be gender, age, religion, and nationality, as well as a certain disease that does not make a person incapable of work. The paper will pay special attention to people who are positive for HIV, and who suffer from a special type of social discrimination, degradation, and disrespect for their basic human rights due to this specific disease.
