Emails obtained by the Guardian show how state environmental regulators were sharply critical of the Philadelphia water department's (PWD) lead-in-water testing, after media reports questioned the water agency's methods.
GMB, a trade union, unmasked such a case in March, it says: a Polish worker at a site in Kent was being paid £4 an hour less than the NAECI minimum.The PWD itself sets minimum standards, but they are not supposed to undercut national ones.
Recent judgments by the European Court of Justice, though, have held that strikes to demand conditions better than those the PWD sets out are not justified.
"While the regulations do allow the use of non-Tier 1 sites," in limited circumstances, "we would have expected a large system such as PWD (that self-reported the probable existence of 50,000 LSLs) to do their due diligence by … taking all steps necessary to locate additional Tier 1 sites," Daniels, in an email in early May.
The PWD continued to use employees' homes to test for lead until at least 2008, documents show.
After educating PWDs about HIV prevention and care, the NUDIPU will help set up support groups in the area.
Although there are no figures on HIV/Aids prevalence rates among PWDs in Uganda, the NUDIPU said anecdotal evidence suggests that this group are increasingly likely to be sexually exploited, particularly women, making them a high risk group for infection.
PWDs also experience stigma and marginalisation when it comes to accessing medical services and education about the virus.
Since the programme started in Soroti, Kafero said 82 PWDs have disclosed that they are HIV-positive.
"Ignorance on factual information has been, and is, a problem affecting PWDs and this is what we are fighting".
