Flu Vaccination Programmes
Offering your staff a flu jab is cost effective, enhances employee wellbeing, and promotes a healthier work force. Research has shown that an effective flu vaccination campaign can result in a reduction in staff illness in some cases by about 50%.
In an average year, between 20% and 30% of your workforce will succumb to the influenza virus. The results:
- Reduced staff efficiency and customer service levels
- Increased temporary staff costs
- Missed deadlines
- Lost business
- Lower staff morale
- Helps stop the spread of flu to colleagues, family, and friends.
This vaccine is also recommended by the NHS and directed by the World Health Organisation. This superior vaccine means that each employee will be protected against more strains of flu than ever before.
There are two important influenza A strains and two important influenza B strains. The previous, trivalent vaccine only covered two A strains and one B strain. This also includes swine flu.
Those employees that have a flu voucher will have the same vaccine but at a pharmacy.
