24.01.2022 In the rush to get employees working from home during Covid-19, employers may not have properly considered some of the legal ramifications. In particular, where employers have directed employees to work from home, they still have a duty of care to ensure that the working environment is safe and without risks to health. In this latest Peer Legal Alert, we discuss some of the OH&S laws and set out some practical tips for employers to consider. #peerlegal #auslaw #workfromhome https://bit.ly/2Xmzc2c

19.01.2022 Peer Legal’s latest alert provides an overview of the changes to Victoria’s OHS laws via the introduction of the new Workplace Manslaughter scheme. The latest changes place additional obligations on employers and are designed to impose greater accountability and recourse for breaches of OHS laws. Employers need to be mindful of the laws and take steps to ensure compliance. #peerlegal #auslaw #OHSlaw https://bit.ly/2Ze5IVp

18.01.2022 One of the many legal processes impacted by social isolation is verification of identity (#VOI). Peer Legal understands that standing in a queue at Australia Post can be inconvenient and annoying, even at the best of times, and has offered online VOI for a while. But, in the Covid-19 paradigm, Peer Legal has moved to mandating online VOIs and now uses Web VOI, an easier, more robust and more secure process. Our infographic explains how. Another way #peerlegal uses technology smartly to improve our clients’ experiences whilst still satisfying legal obligations. #workingfromhome #techlaw

17.01.2022 Peer Legal is excited to officially welcome its newest commercial lawyer to the team: Oliver Wilhelm.

17.01.2022 Peer Legal’s electronic contracts and technology law expert, Peter Moran, has open-sourced his views on how we might sign and witness wills electronically in order to arguably comply with Victoria’s formal requirements. We have published this Alert with the aim of supporting not just our clients but our colleagues and the community more broadly. Lawyers have an obligation in these times to assist the community in whatever ways we can and breaching physical distancing rules, such as in order to witness a will being signed, should not be excused just because our contracting laws and practices have not kept pace with our broader use of technologies. #peerlegal #auslaw #techlaw https://bit.ly/39BwuIV

17.01.2022 As leaders in the law of electronic contracts, Peer Legal is pleased to offer its expertise in assisting electronic signing and witnessing processes. Even where we are not involved in the drafting or negotiation of the document, we are happy to complete the process on your behalf for a nominal fee. Please see our infographic or www.peerlegal.com.au for more information. #peerlegal #electronicsigning #techlaw
