Influenza peaks in BC through late autumn and winter, which is exactly when a municipality's operational demands are highest and least deferrable. Snow and ice response, storm drainage, water main breaks in a freeze - none of it waits for staffing levels to recover.
Public works crews are also a difficult group to reach by conventional means. They start early, they are dispersed across yards and sites, and a fair number will not book a pharmacy appointment on their own time. Office staff at city hall are easy; the roads crew is the group that matters and the group that gets missed.
There is a public-facing dimension too. Clerks, bylaw officers, recreation staff, library staff and transit operators interact with hundreds of residents a week, including a good number of elderly and immunocompromised ones.
You are not paying for vaccine. We supply influenza vaccine through Fraser Health, so the publicly funded dose is the same one your staff would receive at a pharmacy. What the municipality pays for is the nurses, the cold chain and getting it to the yard at 6:30am.
We already work with BC municipal and institutional employers - see hearing testing and respirator fit testing for municipal and public works, and our work at Kent and Mountain Institutions.
Municipal workforces are spread across sites. We schedule across them rather than making everyone come to one building.
We can combine sites across a single week so a small municipality gets one coordinated program rather than four separate bookings.
We already run multi-site testing programs for municipal, school district and institutional employers across BC. A flu program is the same coordination problem.
The crews who matter most for winter service continuity are the ones least likely to attend a clinic at city hall. We start early and set up where they actually muster, because a program that only reaches administrative staff has not protected your snow response.
Municipal workforces sit across yards, plants, garages, recreation centres and offices. We sequence those in a single season so you place one booking, get one participation summary, and do not have five different departments each arranging their own thing.

They showed up to our jobsite in Duncan, on time and were well prepared for our team to have their fit tests done on site.
Wonderful experience! Noah was lovely to coordinate with and the testing experience was seamless for our team! Would happily book again for our next test. Cheers!
We got our mask fitting tests done by Amy. Both the service and attitude were excellent! Will definitely call them again for other services!
Great experience with Noah and Catherine. Showing up on time, very professional and on track for the schedule.
Definitely good at their job. Noah and Amy were at our construction job site and did a good job for testing. Helped all our crew on site.

A great on-site hearing test experience. Katherine was kind, professional, and made the process quick and comfortable.
Overall it was a wonderful experience for the test. Very professional and good consultation regarding hearing loss prevention.
Ammy took my hearing test and it was an awesome experience. She was very professional, kind, and explained everything clearly. The test was done smoothly and I felt comfortable the entire time. I truly appreciate her patience and excellent service. Highly recommended!
Common questions about flu clinics for BC municipalities and public works departments.
Yes. Multi-site programs are normal for us - works yard, water treatment, transit garage, recreation centres and city hall can all be covered in one coordinated season with a single participation summary at the end.
Yes. Outdoor crews typically muster well before office hours and we schedule to meet them there. This matters more than it sounds: a clinic at 10am in the council building reaches administration and misses operations entirely.
No. There is no vaccination mandate for municipal employees. The BC reporting duty introduced in July 2024 applies to health authority staff, not municipal staff. Municipalities run clinics for service continuity and as an employee benefit, not to satisfy a rule.
Participation is voluntary and individual results belong to the employee - we make both of those explicit to every participant. That is usually what a joint health and safety committee wants to hear before endorsing the program.
Two to four weeks ahead, and earlier for multi-site programs. Clinics run September through December, and booking in September gets you dates that fit your operational calendar rather than the ones left in November.
Nurse-led flu clinics at the yard, the plant and the office, with documented cold chain and one participation summary across every site.
