Beat the Bug, Fight the Flu - Vaccinate!
The influenza season has been progressively affecting more people between May and September each year. According to recent Australian research, one in every twenty patients visiting a GP in 2007 was diagnosed with influenza. This represents 2.5 times the number of cases reported for the same period in 2006.
What measurable outcomes can your company expect from implementing an influenza vaccination program?
Good Health Solutions recently conducted research into the drivers of health, absence and productivity. Results have shown that 37% of employee absence is due to coughs and/or colds. However, conclusive studies have proven that the influenza vaccine can be up to 70% - 90% effective in preventing influenza illness in healthy adults.
In addition, company wide influenza vaccinations are one of the most well validated health interventions from a return on investment (ROI) perspective. Make use of our online calculator to determine your companies ROI as a result of the implementation of an influenza vaccination program.
