About the Employer VaccinationToolkit
Introduction | Toolkit Quick Links |
Emergencies are inevitable, and business leaders everywhere know the devastating effects disasters can have on their organization. Despite knowing the risk that jeopardizes their investments, many organizations do not take action because they do not know how. Businesses can do much to prepare for the impact of the many hazards they face in today’s world. For example, in the business case section, illness can be financially crippling to a business. Missed work, decreased productivity, healthcare costs, etc. all negatively affect a business. One essential step of protecting the bottom line and the sustainability of a business is by ensuring the health of employees. As the vaccinated population declines, the importance of protecting employees from disease outbreaks has become even more important. Iowa business leaders need to intensify efforts to improve vaccination rates among the workforce population. Increasing vaccination rates would reduce the burden of disease and the associated health care costs. This toolkit has been developed to provide resources that will assist Iowa businesses with vaccination programs. For the most up-to-date information regarding vaccination rates, visit here. |
