American Red Cross - NH Gateway Chapter

American Red Cross - NH Gateway Chapter Does your company have a plan in place that will allow you to continue operation in the face of unprecedented absenteeism due to a wide spread flu outbreak? In June, the World Health Organization (WHO) raised the worldwide pandemic alert level to Phase 6—a designation indicating that a global pandemic is underway.

Join... representatives from the American Red Cross for a seminar on flu preparedness, where you’ll hear about the latest developments and resources available to help you:

*Educate employees about how to prepare for and respond effectively to pandemic flu.
*Aid in business sustainability in the face of pandemic flu.
*Learn about OSHA’s new pandemic flu products and resources.

This Seminar will also provide you with an orientation to a new American Red Cross pandemic flu preparedness program that you can deliver to your employees. The program covers:

*What to expect during a flu pandemic.
*The difference between seasonal flu and pandemic flu.
*How the influenza virus spreads.
*Steps to reduce the spread of flu in the workplace.
*What questions to ask about workplace policies, practices and protocols related to the potential of a flu pandemic.
