\"Air<\/a><\/p>\n

And even save your company?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sounds simple. And it is. <\/strong><\/p>\n

With another week \u2013 and weekend – of showery weather and blustery winds behind us, even the most optimistic and stout-hearted cohorts will have trouble convincing the rest of their colleagues that summer is not over yet that autumn is not just round the corner, but still a long way off.<\/p>\n

Although autumn is officially still a full five weeks off, sneezing fits, raspy coughs and running noses seem to greet you wherever you go \u2013 on the bus, on the train, in banks, bistro, shops and public places \u2013 and in the office, the production area and the workplace.<\/p>\n

Workforce expenditure can make up a significant share of the running costs of a company. And if people are off work and have to stay at home because they are suffering from bad colds, flu or other infections, then this will have a serious effect on the company\u2019s budget, especially if the strain or virus reaches epidemic proportions. No people, no productivity.<\/p>\n

Yet although many companies \u2013 and many small businesses \u2013 know that there is a battle to be fought against high sickness rates and lost work hours, they do not fully realise the implications which a flu epidemic, for example, could have on their standing and their prospective performance in the long-run. As the last flu epidemic showed, some businesses are totally unable to cope with the situation when a large portion of their workforce is taken ill and it is left for a skeleton workforce to carry on making the company tick over and avert the worst from happening.<\/p>\n

Far be it from a company like ours to spread fear and uncertainty or sew anxiety and sound like scare mongers, but according to the WHO, the World Health Organisation, and the renowned Robert Koch Institute there are serious grounds for concern that the next outbreak of flu could occur on a pandemic scale \u2013 and that it could even be worse than the last. Experts also warn of a new \u201csuperbug\u201d that is even resistant to the strongest antibiotics: there have been 44 reported cases of patients who have been diagnosed as having been exposed to NDM-1, the new gene that has its name from New Delhi, the place where it was first identified before subsequently defecting to Pakistan and the UK. A study in The Lancet Infestions Deseases<\/a> draws attention to the severity of the situation and states that \u201c a worldwide public health problem is great\u201d.<\/p>\n

So how, if at all, can you protect yourself, your loved ones \u2013 and your company or business – from such a pandemic?<\/p>\n

Hygiene management. It\u2019s that easy. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Steps should be taken immediately to ensure that you and your staff are protected. With work safety clothes and respiratory masks \u2013 and air purifiers<\/a>.

Don\u2019t be caught napping. Make a decision which will bring down the number of man hours lost and cut out the risk of being hit unawares by the next flu epidemic or pandemic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
