Nobody likes getting sick, and flu symptoms—weakness, fatigue and cough—can last up to a week according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). And what's more, flu season can last well into the spring. This can wreak havoc on productivity, as employees stay home or aren't able to give 100% to their work when they're sick.
In addition to washing one's hands, eating healthy and getting enough sleep, one of the best ways to prevent the flu is by getting a flu shot.
Hosting an onsite flu shot clinic is a simple way to protect your employees' health and prepare them for flu season. Studies by the CDC have shown that getting vaccinated can reduce the risk of flu-related doctor visits by 50 to 60%, which translates into employees being sick less and in the office more.
And we can help you get started with an onsite clinic. Employees' flu vaccines are covered by your Asuris plan, and our contracted vendors will help you make the clinic a success. If you have an Asuris pharmacy benefit, you may also set up an onsite clinic with Costco or Walgreens.
