If you’re involved in your company’s wellness clinics, pre-employment physicals or other health functions, make tetanus vaccination part of your package. Keep track of employee vaccinations and when the eight- to nine-year mark is on the horizon, start the reminders.
It gives you peace of mind. If an employee has a “dirty†puncture or minor wound that he or she doesn’t report, and doesn’t treat, you’ll know the tetanus vaccination is up-to-date and won’t lead to a catastrophic medical emergency.
