Influenza Vaccinations

The impact of flu on the workforce

As we have seen this year the flu has a massive economic impact on New Zealand businesses every year. In New Zealand, research found the average annual cost of influenza-related workplace absence is $837 per employee.

On average, the flu affects 10-20% of the population every year. The average flu-affected employee takes between three and five off work and the seasonal nature of flu concentrates most of these absences into a relative short period, especially if employees catch the flu from each other. Most of us have had the experience of working somewhere when, in the space of a couple of weeks, the team members ‘drop like flies’ as illness circulates. This high and concentrated incidence, and long duration of impact per affected person, can decimate your workforce, throw business into chaos, and leave productivity (and profits) in a hole.

So, what do I do about it?

Well, that’s easy you trust the experts at Proactive Occupational Health to look after your team and their whanau. We can help look after your team in many ways.

First and foremost, the number one way to protect your team is with the influenza vaccine. We can tailor our process to meet your needs.

We can come to you:

We can send our team out to your workplace and deliver the vaccine on-site.

This approach cuts down on lost productivity as we cut down on travelling to the clinic.

This is ideal for those wanting to get it done quickly, but it doesn’t suit everyone as some people want that extra bit of privacy.

You can come to us:

If you want the personal touch, we can do that too. You can come and visit the awesome team at our locations throughout Aotearoa.

We can run clinics for your team or just see one person a t a time.
