Copperbelt Minister Mwansa Mbulakulima has warned psychosocial counselors to uphold the counseling ethics as regards to information given to them by clients.
Mr Mbulakulima warned of possible prosecution if they indulged themselves in releasing privileged information to the public and fuelling stigma and Discrimination.
The Minister said this in Chambishi today during the graduation Ceremony of six psychosocial counselors for NFC mining company.
He commended the mine management for being one of the pioneers to implement a workplace policy on HIV/AIDS at its company.
In a speech read on his behalf by Kalulushi District Commissioner, Joshua Mutisa, Mr Mbulakulima expressed gratitude to learn that the human resources department has put in place a comprehensive training programme that includes training of spouses of their employees.
He implored other mining companies in the province to put in place policies on HIV/AIDS at their workplaces.
And AFC Chief executive officer Mr Gao XIANG said the company would also train employees spouses and equip them with information on HIV/AIDS.
Mr Xiang added that the training programme had been done in partnership with mindset clinical care training services LTD.
He urged the graduates to put to use the knowledge they had gained in order to have a stress free workforce.

Joshua Mutisa, Mbulakulima u are fake guys.
He’s warning counselors to do what they are already trained to do? What does he think they were learning?
Interestingly, the term is far less common in Ireland. Neither of Dublin’s two main shopping streets (Grafton Street and Henry Street) carry this name, nor does its main thoroughfare, O’Connell Street. While Dublin does indeed have a street named “High Street”, near Christchurch, it is not a shopping street. Cork’s main shopping street is St. Patrick’s Street and Limerick’s is also O’Connell Street, which is also used in a number of other Irish towns (after Daniel O’Connell). Main Street is used in many smaller towns and villages. For example, the OSI North Leinster Town Maps book lists 16 Main Streets and only two High Streets in its index of street names (of 30 towns). Similarly, the OSI D
Starting at least 10 centuries ago, the word high gradually evolved to also mean something excellent or of superior rank, as evidenced in high sheriff and high society. It was applied to roads as they improved, and the word highway has been recorded from the early 9th century. “High Street” began to be used to describe the thoroughfares containing the main retail areas in villages and towns.
In recent years, although the term “High Street” is still used to refer to commerce, shopping has begun to shift to purpose-built out-of-town shopping centres and supermarkets. However compared to the United States town and city centre shopping remains widespread. The town centre of many larger Britis
The term “High Street” is often used to describe common stores found on a typical high street, to differentiate them from more specialist or less common outlets. For example, someone might refer to “High Street banks” or “High Street shops”.
Applied to the sort of “everyday” sense of style that might be spotted in any metropolitan or provincial setting; most likely to be associated with prevailing “shop window” fashions. In 2004 the Observer wrote of the singer Dido that “she drifts on stage dressed in high-street chic: faded denim and a tracksuit top, which she slips off to reveal a pink camisole vest” [16]. Samantha Cameron, wife of British Conservative Party leader David Cameron was described in 2006 as “spurn[ing] the designers … for high street chic” [17].
[edit] Hippie chic
Broadly similar to boho-chic (see e.g. London Evening Standard Magazine, 11 March 2005), the term was associated in the mid 1990s with Tom Ford
thank you and God bless mother Zambia.
Yes well done Mr. Minister you did well by reminding them to be very very confidential otherwise this will be fueling stigma and Discrimination among the society
It’s a shame but necessary that these counsellors need to be reminded of what they are trained to do. One goes for ‘confidential’ counselling in Lusaka and the news is in Solwezi 4 minutes later, especially if it’s positive result. My theory is that most cousellors are in that post becoz of their status and usually love it when they get ‘recruits’, and thus rush to sharing the news. A relative chased his 17 year old daughter from home when a ‘confidential’ counsellor informed him of her visit nad testing negative. He reasoned that even if the result was good, the fact that she found it necessary to go for the test proved she was promiscuous.
Its increasingly difficult to find people who have respect for confidential information.even if you tell somebody that the issue is a confidential matter,the sooner you seperate the louder you will find it where you are going yet you discussed it where you come from.nevertheless i dont see the reason why it must be confidential when everything done in secrecy alway comes out in the public eye:pregnancies are manufactured either in privacy or in the night but they come out in the open.adultery is practised in private places but people alway come to discover.the more you avoid privacy the better for everyone because you will learn to confess to everybody that you are immune defficient and …
