Corporate flu vaccination, delivered on site

We bring the vaccines, the pharmacists and the paperwork to your premises. Your staff are protected in around five minutes each, without leaving the building.

Corporate flu vaccination is the simplest occupational health intervention an employer can run. Influenza is responsible for a meaningful share of short-term winter absence, and unlike most causes of sickness absence it is largely preventable. The barrier has never been willingness. It is logistics.

When employees are asked to book their own appointment, take time out of the working day and travel to a pharmacy or GP surgery, uptake collapses. When a pharmacist arrives at the office with everything needed and a colleague is back at their desk five minutes later, it does not. That difference is the entire proposition.

What a corporate flu programme includes

HYL Health is a GPhC-registered pharmacy (registration 9013230). Every clinic is run by registered pharmacists working under our superintendent pharmacist, and every element below is included in the per-person price.

  • Quadrivalent influenza vaccine, cold-chain validated from wholesaler to point of administration.
  • Consent and pre-screening forms supplied for every employee to complete before the clinic day, together with a personalised employee FAQ, prepared for your organisation, for you to circulate beforehand.
  • Individual clinical screening on the day. Anyone for whom vaccination is not appropriate is safely deferred and you are not charged.
  • Administration by a registered pharmacist, with post-vaccination observation.
  • Anaphylaxis kit and trained responder present at every clinic.
  • Uptake reporting within 48 hours, suitable for your occupational health file.
  • Full indemnity and public liability cover.

Pricing

Corporate flu vaccination starts at £11.99 per person and reduces with team size. There are no setup fees, no call-out charges and no minimum contract. You are invoiced only for vaccinations actually administered, which means deferrals and no-shows cost you nothing.

Multi-site programmeEmployers with several offices or depotsCo-ordinated clinic dates across sites with consolidated reporting
Voucher schemeRemote, hybrid or widely dispersed staffEmployees redeem at a participating pharmacy, you are billed on redemption

Most employers combine the first and third. An on-site clinic covers the head office, and vouchers pick up home workers and field staff.

Is it worth it?

We would rather give you the honest version than a headline figure. The published evidence on workplace vaccination and absence reduction is mixed, because effect size depends heavily on how well the season's vaccine matches circulating strains and how much of your workforce takes part. Independent reviews have found reductions in influenza-like illness among vaccinated working-age adults, with a smaller and less certain effect on total days of absence.

What is not in dispute: vaccination reduces an individual's risk of influenza, and uptake rises sharply when the clinic comes to the workplace rather than the other way round. If you are going to fund vaccination at all, delivering it on site is what makes the spend land.

Timing

The UK flu season typically runs from October to March, with peak circulation between December and February. Immunity takes around two weeks to develop and wanes over the season, so October and early November is the operational sweet spot for most employers.

Booking earlier than that matters more than you would expect. Vaccine supply is ordered against forecast, and clinic dates in the first half of October are usually committed by late summer. If you are reading this in September, you are at the back end of comfortable, not too late.

Running the clinic day

You need a private room with a table, two chairs and a sink or hand-sanitiser point. We bring everything else, including the sharps bin. A pharmacist vaccinates roughly 10 to 12 people per hour, so a team of 60 is comfortably a half day.

For shift-based operations we split the clinic to catch handover periods rather than forcing staff to attend outside working hours. See how we handle this in warehousing and logistics and manufacturing.

Common questions

How much does corporate flu vaccination cost?

From £11.99 per person, reducing with team size. The price includes the quadrivalent vaccine, pharmacist administration, clinical screening, consent management and post-clinic reporting. There are no setup or call-out fees, and you are only invoiced for vaccinations actually given.

How many employees do we need for an on-site clinic?

On-site clinics are viable from around 15 people at a single location. Below that, a voucher scheme is usually more economical. We can advise on the crossover point for your specific setup.

Can employees decline?

Yes. Vaccination is always voluntary. Every employee completes an individual consent form and can withdraw at any point, including on the day.

Do you cover the whole UK?

Yes. We run clinics UK-wide from our London base, with regional pharmacist cover for sites outside the South East. Travel is included in the quoted price.

What happens if an employee should not be vaccinated?

Our pharmacist screens each person individually before administration. Anyone with a contraindication, an acute febrile illness or a relevant allergy is deferred and advised appropriately. You are not charged for deferrals.

How quickly can you attend?

We quote within 24 hours and can usually offer clinic dates within two to three weeks, subject to season. October dates are typically committed by late summer.
