Flu or Influenza is an expensive productivity killer at the workplace, costing about 7 $ billion in loss of wage and presenteeism in Australia alone. A healthy workforce is not only beneficial for the employer but also a great contributor to the nation’s economy, saving billions worth of work due to a healthier workforce.

Influenza is still one of the most prominent reasons for the Australian workforce not being able to attend their work. Unlike cold, flu is more contagious and can stay longer than a week, sometimes leaving people to suffer from fatigue and tiredness due to flu which can last a few weeks.

This brings the necessity for employers to organise a flu vaccination program for their employee’s health and wellbeing and the best way to do it is to organise it onsite.

The benefits of on-site workplace flu vaccinations

• Onsite vaccination programs are cost-effective for businesses. A vaccinated workforce is less likely to fall sick and stops the spread of flu at work.
• This significantly reduces absenteeism and sick leaves, benefiting a wide range of business sizes and types. A vaccine program at the workplace can also reduce and prevent the risks of other occupational health and safety disasters.
• An onsite vaccine program can reduce absentees as this would save time for the employees and the employers to get vaccinated outside work premises.
• This improves the overall health of the workforce and enhances team spirit.
