Report of the Director of Human Resources.

The Committee received a report of the Director of Human Resources which was in response to a query raised by Members at the previous Committee regarding flu vaccinations.

A Member commented that the cost benefit analysis was incontrovertible, and Boots seemed to provide the best value for money.

In response to a request for an update with regards to the Open Spaces trial of the flu vaccination, Members were informed that out of 480 staff, 85 opted to have the vaccine.

Discussion took place as to whether there would be tax implications, the Chamberlain advised this would be unlikely.

Members asked that an action plan to roll out the vaccination to staff and Members be brought back to the Committee for January 2019, and that Boots be approached by the Chamberlain to see whether a financial discount could be given.

RESOLVED – That the Committee note the report.
