      Everything you need to know to manage your business and thrive during these challenging times

      Employers

      What are your obligations to employees? What assistance for your business?

      ** If you’re one of the countless Australian businesses facing major workplace changes as a result of COVID-19 (such as a suddenly-remote workforce), we’re here to help you transition seamlessly. Our complete guide to the COVID-19 workplace here will help you.

       

      ** Managing your obligations as an employer is key to capitalising on this newfound productivity. Yes, it’s a brand new workplace - but you have the same old obligations (plus a few new ones, too). Find out more here.

       

      ** If your staff are still in the workplace, or if they are slowly returning to work as a result of restrictions easing- consider being proactive in your approach to keeping your staff safe. Avoid scrolling for hours to find the information you need, click here to find accurate and up-to date information on COVID-19. Find out more information on proper self-isolation here and for information on social distancing, click here. You can also find a helpful and printable infographic on washing your hands here.

      Business and Risk Management

      Contractual obligations during COVID-19? How to manage future risk?

      ** Feeling overwhelmed by the challenges of meeting existing contractual obligations - or how to negotiate new ones - is completely understandable right now. However, there is a legal clause that may offer assistance in times like these. Learn how the Force Majeure clause can help you here.

       

      Thrive through COVID-19

      New ways of doing business? New ways of managing teams?

      ** Going digital with contracts. Welcome to the age of electronic signatures, where you, your clients and most modern businesses rely on keyboards - not pens - to make things official. But is typing your name a legally-binding substitute for the real thing? Find out here, where we discuss the legalities, requirements and grey areas of electronic signatures - so you can feel confident conducting business online in the time of COVID-19.
