Chickenpox and flu are both spread through droplet transmission, so avoiding people who are coughing and sneezing, avoiding putting your hands near your mouth or eyes without washing first, and setting an example by protecting your colleagues from your own coughing and sneezing can reduce the risk. In addition, both chickenpox and flu are vaccine-preventable, so talk with your health care provider about whether it makes sense for you to get these vaccines, and encourage your family, friends, and colleagues to do so as well.
