For Healthcare Providers

Influenza is a contagious respiratory disease that spreads easily, especially in the workplace. Every year, influenza causes up to 3,500 deaths and an average of 12,200 hospitalizations across Canada.

This year, to help employers keep their employees and workplaces healthy and safe, we have created an Employer Toolkit to help you in your efforts to encourage your employees to get vaccinated against influenza. In this toolkit, you will find:

• a turnkey guide on how to use the resources
• key messages and FAQs for employers
• informational posters (4 options)
• a template e-mail blast to employees
  • on-site clinic (4 options)
  • off-site (4 options)
• a template personal e-mail from managers: on-site clinic
  • e-mail graphics (4 options)
• a template personal e-mail from managers: off-site clinics
  • e-mail graphics (4 options)
• a template calendar-hold for vaccine appointments
• information for company leadership on offering on-site influenza vaccination clinics

All the below images are downloadable – just right-click the resource you would like to download and select "Save image as...".

This toolkit is made possible by a grant from Seqirus Canada.
