Yes, I know. We hear about it every day. We hear how more and more people are becoming infected and unable to go to work. This results in lost productivity in many ways. A well thought out plan to guard against the flu will help keep employees' healthy and protect from high absenteeism.
What can business owners do? First and foremost, urge employees to wash their hands often and use hand sanitizer many times during the day. Consider handing out imprinted hand sanitizers listing prevention tips to your staff. Or, pass out containers of anti-bacterial wipes for employees to wipe down their areas. This will reduce the number of airborne germs that can cause illness. Cough into your elbow - not into the air. Reduce the number of face-to-face meetings as much as possible and do not encourage sick workers to come to the office.
These are just common sense suggestions we should follow every day but oftentimes, we need to be reminded. For more information on flu in the workplace, go to www.flu.gov.
