  • Description: The negating effect of stigma on health outcomes has been widely established. Described as a hidden burden of disease, stigma significantly influences the inequities in health. The seminal work of Sociologist, Erving Goffman’s initially published in 1963 continue to underpin our current understanding of stigma as socially influenced through the symbolic interactions of everyday experiences that influences behaviour. Within the context of HIV, stigma remains a barrier in ending the epidemic and is associated with diminished health outcomes, health seeking patterns and poor quality of life. The significant advances in HIV treatment, has increased the life expectancy of people living with HIV, and has shifted the management of HIV as a manageable chronic illness. However the negative stigma outcomes experienced by people living with HIV remains. Moreover, the interactions of other syndemics (that is the co-existence of another disease/s, or social factors) further contributes to the stigma experienced by people living with HIV. This may refer to the co-existence of TB, depressive or other mental health disorder, younger woman, pregnancy, and occupations or work type industry, such as mini-bus taxi drivers, sex workers to name a few syndemics. Central to the health are the values and attributes of caring, towards the restorative process for sustained health and improved wellbeing. To enable care, there is a need for health care professionals to know how to care. Patterns of Knowing or Ways of Knowing developed by nurse theorist Barbra Carper (1975, 1978) and extended by Chinn and Kramer (2008) has become widely applied in nursing and health professions education and training. Ways of knowing acknowledges five inter related facets (empirical, ethical, personal, aesthetic and emancipatory) inherent in the provision of holistic care. The lecture will reflect on the syndemics associated with HIV related stigma, and the symbolic interactions with health care; in the provision of health care and in education and training of health care professionals. This will be framed against ways of knowing, how health care professionals know how to care, the inherent and learnt symbolic meanings in how care is provided, and its potential to demystify and eliminate the perpetuated HIV related stigma.

Structure and agency in the age of climate change

  • Description: What I will present here is based on my grappling over the past three decades with one of the central problems of social science – the relationship between social structure and human agency. This is not a new problem for social scientists; from Karl Marx, who understood that human beings make history, but not in circumstances of their choosing; to the French structuralists who conceived the term ‘relative autonomy’ and ‘overdetermination’; to Anthony Giddens’ ‘structuration theory’ and other contemporary sociologists. What is new are the changing physical circumstances of the world in which we live, which mean that human society can no longer afford to analyse ourselves and our social, political and economic systems independently of the natural world.

  • Description: Part II of the International Labour Organisation Convention 158 recognises operational requirements of an organisation as a ground for dismissal. Section 213 of the Labour Relations Act describes operational requirements reasons as requirements based on the economic, technological, structural or related needs of an employer. The employer‟s needs in case of operational requirement dismissal must be separated from the other reasons for dismissal, such as misconduct and incapacity. Operational requirements dismissals are governed by section 189 of the LRA. The LRA draws a distinction between small and large scale dismissals and regulates them separately. Section 189 control small scale dismissals, while section 189A pertains to large scale dismissals For substantive fairness of a dismissal for operational requirements, the employer must prove that the said reason is one based on operational requirements of the business. The employer must be able to prove that the reason for the dismissal falls within the statutory definition of operational requirements. Employers are not allowed to use retrenchment to dismiss employees who they believe to have performed unsatisfactorily. This means that employers are not entitled to retrench for ulterior reasons, than those of operational requirements.The Labour Court has held that an employer may not under any situation retrench an employee on a fixed-term contract if the termination takes place before the contract of the employee ends, unless the contract of employment makes provision for termination at an earlier date. Retrenchment in this situation will amount to a breach of contract. Another point of interest in dismissals for operational requirements is that the Labour Relations Act states that it is not unlawful to dismiss a striking employee for reasons based on the employer‟s operational requirements. In relation to the selection criteria to be used during these dismissals, the Labour Relations Act again states that if an agreement cannot be reached between the consulting parties, then the employer must use criteria that are fair and objective.
