In a programme to prevent and control the spread of STIs, city ordinances targeted women working as freelance sex workers or in entertainment establishments and saunas. In the Philippines, Quezon City's first ordinance required all job applicants to obtain health certificates and to attend HIV/AIDS awareness seminars. In 1999, a second ordinance created an STI/AIDS Council. A third ordinance focuses on strengthening the implementation of rules and regulations that require entertainers to get weekly checkups at social hygiene clinics. Sauna and massage parlor workers attend a 1-week seminar that includes HIV awareness, personal hygiene, principles of massage, and ways to prevent HIV. Local city health department task forces monitor employees weekly for health certificates, make certain they are at least 18 years old, and check to see that the establishments have condoms. If establishments do not comply, their managers receive one warning and are advised to allow staff to comply; otherwise they face closure through due process and recommendations by the licensing and health departments.
