To help prevent the spread of disease during an influenza pandemic, what action is recommended for employers?

  1. Mandate flu vaccines for all employees

  2. Encourage employees to stay home when sick

  3. Provide hand sanitizer to kill the germs

  4. All of the above

The correct answer is: Encourage employees to stay home when sick

Employers can play an important role in preventing the spread of disease during an influenza pandemic by promoting and encouraging employees to stay home when they are sick. This helps prevent the spread of illness to others in the workplace. Mandating flu vaccines for all employees may not be feasible or effective as some employees may have legitimate exemptions or objections to receiving the vaccine. While providing hand sanitizer can be helpful, it should not be relied on as the sole preventative measure. Employees should also be educated on proper hand washing techniques and encouraged to practice good hygiene. Therefore, option B is the recommended action for employers to take during an influenza pandemic.
