Managing the Business of Flu

Where: Charleston Area Alliance, 1116 Smith Street

When: Wednesday, August 19

Will your business still be able to operate with one-third of your workforce sick?

There are more cases of the H1N1 flu reported every week and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is estimating that it will spread more dramatically this fall. How will the seasonal flu and H1N1 impact you and your business and how can you decrease the chances of employee absenteeism?

Join us on Wednesday, August 19th from noon to 1p.m. as Dr. Rahul Gupta, health officer for the Kanawha-Charleston Health Department describes how employers need to prepare, plan and protect their workforce during this upcoming flu season.

Terri McCormick, vice president of human resources for the BrickStreet Mutual Insurance Company, will also be joining us to discuss how Brickstreet handled its recent H1N1 outbreak.
