Why are Workplace Vaccinations Important?
Employees in certain industries may face increased exposure to infectious diseases, blood or body fluids, animals, or other occupational hazards. Vaccination can help reduce these risks while supporting a healthier workforce.
Employer vaccination programs can help:
- Protect employees from vaccine-preventable diseases
- Support occupational health and safety programs
- Reduce the risk of workplace outbreaks
- Help employers meet applicable industry or exposure-related requirements
- Reduce illness-related employee absences
- Prepare employees for work-related international travel
Vaccinations for Employees with Occupational Exposure
Some employees may need specific vaccines because of the work they perform. Healthcare workers and others with potential occupational exposure to blood or other potentially infectious materials may need hepatitis B vaccination as part of an employer's exposure-control program.
Other vaccines may be appropriate based on an employee's occupation, work environment, previous immunization history, and potential exposure risks.
Patient Plus can work with employers to coordinate vaccinations based on their workforce's needs.
Flu Vaccinations for Employees
Seasonal influenza can spread quickly through workplaces, contributing to employee illness and absenteeism. Annual flu vaccination is a simple way for employers to support employee health during flu season.
Patient Plus can help employers coordinate flu vaccination services for employees as part of a broader workplace wellness or occupational health program.
