He said that companies do it for employees not to be nice but because they want their employee's healthy so they will be at work and not sick at home. It is cost effective for your employer to give flu shots. Funny, I was at the doctor this week and he was trying to talk me into getting one.

While it is true that the money would not be available for bonuses etc, think of how much of a bonus $25 times the number of people in the company would be. Or really how many computers, paperclips etc they would really have bought if they chose not to pay for the flu shots on the premises. :-) I agree with you on the CBA that it was free to you…and actually worth more to the company in potential savings for the future.
