      Flu vaccination

      Every year, the flu leads to empty desks, gaps in the team and a stack of sick notes. Sometimes, your business may even be forced to slow down. However, there’s a simple solution: offer vaccination to your employees. A flu jab isn’t much trouble to arrange, but it will make your team stronger.

      How flu vaccination makes all the difference

      The flu is no small matter. Up to 15% of your employees are laid low by it every year, sometimes for a week or longer. You can instantly feel the effects of this in your planning, your workload and your results.

      The flu is no small matter. Up to 15% of your employees are laid low by it every year, sometimes for a week or longer.

      The solution is obvious: vaccination. You’ll reduce the risk of getting the flu by as much as 80%, and if someone does catch the virus, the symptoms are usually far less severe.

      Flu vaccines are therefore well worth it:

      • Your team continues to work at almost full capacity, because levels of sick leave are much lower

      • You can keep the workload manageable for colleagues who aren’t ill

      • A vaccination campaign reinforces your image as a caring employer

      Present yourself as a caring employer

      A vaccine reduces the risk of flu by as much as 80%.

      You can significantly reduce absenteeism during the flu season with a vaccination campaign. A preventive absenteeism and wellbeing policy goes much further than that, though. Motivate your team to maintain a healthy lifestyle and limit stress, to make sure your employees retain their vitality and resilience at work.

      We like to make it as convenient as possible for you: vaccination can be offered at your workplace (for a minimum of 20 employees) or at a Mensura consultation centre near you. You can order the vaccines quickly and easily via MyMensura, our customer portal.

      • We set the price per every year – including administration and giving the injections.
      • The exact dates vary from year to year, but our vaccination campaign runs roughly from October to December.

      • If you have any prevention units, you can use them to pay the invoice.

      • After you’ve placed your order, we’ll get in touch to fix a date.

      • If any employees are absent on the day, no problem: vaccines will be available for them at a Mensura consultation centre nearby.
