The impact of HIV/AIDS on the Kenya police force
Abstract
The world is becoming increasingly complex and the most serious challenges are global in nature. One of these global challenges identified by the Millennium Project (one of various environmental organizations focusing on HIV/AIDS) is the control and reduction of new and re-emerging diseases and immune microorganisms. The illness and subsequent deaths of workers resulting from HIV/AIDS has an enormous impact on the national productivity and earnings. Labour productivity drops, the benefits of education are lost, and resources that would have been used for wealth creation and poverty reduction are diverted to treatment, care and support. Savings are declining and human capital is affecting production and quality of life. The objective of the study was to determine the impact of HIV /AIDS on the Kenya police force. This research was conducted through descriptive research design. It was based on both secondary and primary data and involved collection of information through the administration of questionnaires to the police officers in the police force, who were selected using stratified random sampling method. Data was analysed using descriptive statistics and interpreted using mean scores, frequencies /percentages. Data presentations were made using tables and graphs
