Flu vaccination for recruitment and staffing agencies

You have an office team and a placed workforce, and they need completely different approaches.

The constraint

Recruitment businesses have a split problem. Internal consultants sit in an office and are straightforward. The temporary and contract workers you place are scattered across client sites, may be on assignment for weeks rather than months, and raise a genuine question about who is responsible for their occupational health.

How we run it

On-site clinic for internal staff

Standard office clinic at your own premises.

Client-site clinics where density allows

Where you have twenty or more workers placed with a single client, a clinic at that site can be arranged, subject to the client's agreement.

Clarity on who pays

Where the assignment carries an occupational exposure requiring vaccination, responsibility depends on the contractual arrangement between agency and hirer. Worth settling before the season, not during it.

A note on responsibility

Under the Agency Workers Regulations and general health and safety law, duties towards temporary workers are shared between agency and hirer in ways that depend on the specific arrangement. Where a placement involves occupational exposure that triggers a vaccination obligation, such as hepatitis B for a healthcare placement, someone has to fund it and it is not the worker.

We are not employment lawyers and this is not legal advice. It is worth taking a view with your own advisers before the season rather than resolving it case by case in November.

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.

Common questions

Can you vaccinate workers we have placed at client sites?

Where you have twenty or more workers at one client site, a clinic there can be arranged with that client's agreement.

Who pays for vaccination for temporary workers?

It depends on the contractual arrangement between agency and hirer, and on whether the assignment carries an occupational exposure requiring vaccination. Take a view with your own advisers. It should not fall to the worker.

Planning a clinic for recruitment agencies

We are a recruitment agency, who should arrange and pay for vaccinations for workers placed with different clients?

Agree with each client who is covered and who pays, then send one clear invitation. We can run a clinic at your office for internal staff and placed workers, or at a client site.
