Workplace flu vaccinations that help protect your employees throughout the winter flu season
Flu can affect people of all ages regardless of general health and fitness. It can spread rapidly through coughing, sneezing and contact with infected surfaces. So, alongside good hygiene practices, vaccination is a simple and effective way of helping to safeguard your employees against the flu each winter and keeping your business fit and well too.
