It’s time to break out the hand sanitizer, tissues, and disinfectant wipes. Yes, cold and flu season is upon us once again with the turn of the weather. Here at Action Business, we are big advocates of the Healthy Workplace Project. Keeping office workers healthy is a serious consideration when it comes to keeping absenteeism low and productivity levels high. Because it is so easy for microscopic pathogens to spread in the office environment, your bottom line can be affected if you don’t take steps ahead of time to defend against the spread of pathogens.
Thankfully, pre-arranged package solutions are available that make this fight much less burdensome. Take a look at these caddies of Scott disinfectant wipes, instant hand sanitizer, and Kleenex wipes. Germs don’t stand a chance on any desk with these convenient caddies around!
You can track this season’s flu outbreak by region through Google’s Flu Trends. The number of flu cases occurring at any one time usually rises to a peak level sometime between October and April, and Google estimates the infection rate by the number of searches happening on their site. You can track flu levels nationally, by state, and, experimentally, by a select number of cities (Lexington happens to be one). Past data shows that they estimate the flu has peaked most often between New Years and Valentines Day, though during the winter of the first H1N1 outbreak (2009-2010) it peaked at the end of October!
