An onsite flu vaccination visit should feel simple, well organised, and easy for staff to follow. At Onsite Health, we structure our workplace flu vaccination service so Auckland businesses can prepare clearly, support staff on the day, and keep disruption to work to a minimum. Our vaccinators come to your workplace, set up onsite, and provide flu vaccinations in a way that is practical for both employers and employees.  

Booking your onsite flu vaccination visit

The first step is to contact us with your team details to choose a date, time, and workplace location. Businesses can fill in an enquiry form or call our team, then provide their team size, preferred date, and Auckland location. We then organise the visit and confirm the booking details with the workplace.  

This planning stage matters because a workplace visit runs best when staff numbers, access, and timing are clear in advance. It also helps us match the visit to your team size and work environment, whether you are in an office, warehouse, clinic, retail site, or another workplace setting.  

Preparing your team before the day

Good preparation makes the visit smoother for everyone. A helpful workplace process usually includes sharing the clinic details with staff in advance, letting them know when the vaccinator will arrive, and giving them time to ask questions before the visit and allowing staff to wear practical clothing to easily access the upper arm to receive a vaccination.

We coordinate the visit and come to the workplace on the agreed date, ready to vaccinate the team onsite. Each vaccination only takes a few minutes, so the main goal before the day is making sure staff know where to go and when to be available. That keeps the session efficient and reduces interruption to the workday.  

Confirmation before the clinic

Closer to the day, workplaces should expect a reminder or final confirmation of the agreed session. This is a useful point to check staff attendance, room access, and any practical needs for the clinic setup.

For larger workplaces, this confirmation stage can also help managers organise staff flow, so people can attend in small groups rather than all at once. A simple plan often makes the whole visit run more smoothly.

What happens on the day

On the day of your onsite flu vaccination visit, our authorised vaccinators arrive at your workplace and set up a vaccination station. All vaccinators are either Registered Pharmacists or Registered Nurses with current authorisation to provide adult immunisations. Onsite Health is Cold Chain Accredited, which means vaccines are handled to Ministry of Health standards to maintain potency.  

The vaccination itself is quick. Each staff member’s flu jab takes just a few minutes, with minimal disruption to the workday. A typical vaccination rate is around 20 to 30 staff per vaccinator per hour, although actual timing can vary depending staff flow, workplace needs, and other factors.  

After vaccination, staff should remain onsite for a short 15 minute observation period. This is standard practice after immunisation and helps ensure immediate support is available if needed.

Support for remote or absent staff

Not every employee can attend the workplace session. Onsite Health addresses this by offering flu vouchers for remote and regional staff, or for people who miss the onsite clinic. These vouchers are redeemable at more than 260 pharmacies and dozens of GP surgeries across New Zealand. Many organisations use a mix of onsite vaccination and vouchers to cover their full workforce.  

A well run onsite clinic should be clear from the first contact through to the final vaccination on the day. That is what employers and staff should expect from an Onsite Health workplace flu vaccination visit. With clear booking, good preparation, qualified vaccinators, and a structured visit onsite, the process stays straightforward and easy to manage.
