Flu vaccination for hospitality and hotels

The constraint

A hotel or restaurant is not one workforce. Kitchen, front of house, housekeeping and maintenance run different hours, take breaks at different times and often have different first languages. A single clinic window catches one group and misses the rest.

How we run it

Department-specific windows

Separate blocks aligned to each team's natural downtime: mid-morning for housekeeping, mid-afternoon between service for kitchen and front of house.

Multilingual consent

Hospitality workforces are frequently multilingual. Consent has to be genuinely understood, not just signed.

Split-shift awareness

Staff working split shifts should not be asked to come in during their unpaid break. We schedule at the start or end of a paid segment.

Agency and casual scope

Agreed before the clinic, as with any sector using flexible labour.

Food handling and sickness policy

Hospitality has a harder sickness absence problem than most sectors, because food handlers with certain symptoms are legally excluded from work rather than choosing whether to attend. Influenza itself does not trigger an exclusion requirement in the way gastrointestinal illness does, but the practical effect of a December outbreak running through a kitchen brigade is the same: you cannot staff service.

The standard service

Quoted as a half-day or full-day clinic fee plus a rate per vaccination. Your written quote confirms both for your team, location and clinic arrangements. See pricing and booking details. Seasonal flu vaccine, individual clinical screening, pharmacist administration, anaphylaxis cover and uptake reporting within 48 hours, all included. The clinic fee covers pharmacist attendance, travel, setup and temperature-controlled vaccine transport, and vaccinations are charged only when given. Beyond 100 miles of central London, we run full-day clinics only, whatever your team size, and travel or overnight costs may be added to your quote.
