Childhood Immunisation Recall in Swiss Employees : Julian SCHILLING, et al. Institute of Social and Preventive Medicine, University of Zurich- During the workplace health promotion project "Check Bus", we asked 10,321 employees (4,070 women, 6,251 men, mean age=39 yr) of two nationwide Swiss enterprises, a large bank and an industrial company, about their vaccination status by using a self- administered questionnaire. Among all respondents, 43.8% reported having a valid (up to date) tetanus vaccination (<10 years old), 29.9% a pertussis vaccination, 74.2% a poliomyelitis vaccination, 53.8% a tuberculosis vaccination, 22.7% a rubella vaccination and 12.7% an MMR vaccination (measles, mumps, rubella). A large number of respondents had no knowledge of their personal immunisation status. We found significant socio-demographic differences. For all vaccinations, age, gender (with the exception of MMR) and language independently predicted vaccination status. Hierarchic occupational rank was an independent and significant predictor for pertussis, poliomyelitis and tuberculosis vaccinations. Our study showed that especially elderly people, males and Italian Speaking participants had a very limited knowledge of their personal vaccination status.
