Beating Cold & Flu Season–How We Can Help Your Business

Fall may bring beautiful colors and cooler weather, but it also brings a dreaded time for many businesses - cold and flu season.

Employees call in more, productivity slumps, and morale can decline. Ultimately, cold and flu season can affect your bottom line.

However, it doesn’t have to be this way! 

With the right proactive measures and the right partner, you can help protect your employees and customers and ensure your business runs smoothly through the fall and beyond.

Our team can help your business create the perfect battle plan to fight off cold and flu season with ease.

Cold & Flu Season: More Than Just An Inconvenience

Common colds, the flu, and illnesses like COVID-19 are viral infections that spread through droplets in the air that we breathe in and out.

The illnesses peak in colder months and cause fevers, cough, congestion, and more. 

Not exactly ideal working conditions.

For businesses, cold and flu season is more than just an inconvenience; it directly threatens finances.

Sick employees need to stay home, disrupting daily operations. Those who come in while sick are not as productive and may spread their sickness to others, worsening the problem!

That’s why arming your business with the tools to fight cold and flu season is essential, and Envirocare can help.

Fighting Cold & Flu Season, The Basics

Before we dive into how Envirocare can help your business fight against cold and flu season, we’ll jump into some of the basic things you can do to prepare.

Firstly, prioritizing hand hygiene will greatly decrease the chances of employees and customers getting sick. Encourage frequent hand washing and provide access to sanitizer stations throughout your facility.

Next, promote respiratory etiquette. Encourage employees to cover coughs and sneezes with a tissue or their elbows to limit the spread of respiratory droplets. Encourage masking based on comfort level.

Finally, tell sick employees to stay home. While being short-staffed will be painful, allowing sick employees to come to work can lead to more staff getting sick.

If possible, offer flexible sick leave to discourage employees from coming to work when ill.
