Flu shot workplace program

Workplace flu shot clinics offer a convenient way for employees to get a flu shot while, in turn, benefiting employers by resulting in less flu-related absences.

Under the workplace program, the flu vaccine is provided free of charge to employers by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. The employer is responsible for the costs of arranging to have nurses give flu shots to employees.
