Even though flu vaccinations are highly recommended by doctors and physicians, many Australians never find the time to go out and get theirs.
Luckily, workplace flu vaccinations are becoming more popular than ever before.
No matter where you work, chances are that your company will offer the flu shot at least once during the year.

A telephone number for an employee hotline will be provided; if any questions or concerns arise, employees will be able to speak with a professional
