What is Influenza?
Influenza, also known as flu, is respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses. These viruses are more common during winter, and symptoms include a sudden fever, aches and pains, a dry cough and sore throat. It can cause mild to severe illness, and at times can lead to death. Flu is very infectious and is not treatable with antibiotics.
Why You Should Vaccinate Your Workforce
The results from studies involving a laboratory-confirmed influenza diagnosis suggested that the mean number of working days lost ranged between 1.5 and 4.9 days per episode. Those papers that detailed working days lost per episode following physician diagnosis of influenza reported a range of 3.7-5.9 days per episode.
With this number of days of lost time – the cost of a vaccine may be a significant saving to any business, whilst also allowing staff the option (its not mandatory and people should never be forced) to have a flu vaccination.
Some members of your workforce may already be eligible for free Flu Vaccinations via the NHS, but again this could take time away from the workplace.
