Workplace Flu Vaccinations

Now is the time to vaccinate your staff against the flu.

Influenza can attack fit healthy persons. Staff with influenza lose days off work. Some infected staff stay at work and infect others so there are more staff days lost as it spreads around the office.

Workplace flu vaccination is a cost effective way to improve productivity

Australian 2009 influenza season vaccine contains the following three virus strains:

  • A (H1N1): an A/Brisbane/59/2007 (H1N1) - like strain
  • A (H3N2): an A/Brisbane/10/2007 (H3N2) - like strain,
  • B: a B/Florida/4/2006 - like strain
