    Employment: Is This The End of Working In Our Pajamas?!

    Hello friends, welcome back! On Friday, Daddy Dan announced that workers are free to return to the office without a cap on numbers (but still adhering to those pesky density levels). Whilst this is a resounding cornerstone of our hard work over the past year to return to "normal" life, it also spells the end of WFH arrangements for most office workers. Some are more pleased than others... So today, we are taking you through your basic minimum employment rights (your National Employment Standards, or NES) and we discuss whether your NES rights give you grounds to request to continue to work from home. The short answer is possibly but it is best to chat to your employer or Fairwork once you know your basic rights! Go forth pals, know your rights and live your best, well-informed life! ------------------------ Show notes: - Fair Work Act ------------------------ Music: Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com DISCLAIMER: https://www.intheknowpodcast.com/disclaimer

    Law School: Six Years and All I Got Was This Lousy Email

    Hello dear listener friends! Today we are celebrating because on Friday 19 March 2021, one half of this podcast became a qualified Australian lawyer! After six long years of studying, Samara finally reached the end (or a beginning, depending on your levels of optimism)! Due to COVID, the usual fanfare of admission was replaced by a two line email. Fun. So, to mark the most special occasion, this week's show takes you through Caitlin and Samara's journey to get to law school, how we are going with it (or went with it in Samara's case) and your comprehensive guide into how to become a lawyer - there are more steps than you'd think. We hop you enjoy this more informal chat. Happy Wednesday pals! --------------------------------- Show notes: - https://www.liv.asn.au/Professional-Practice/Supporting-You/Managing-Your-Career/Qualifying-to-Practise-Law ------------------------------- Music: Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com DISCLAIMER: https://www.intheknowpodcast.com/disclaimer

    Employment: Bye Bye Bully

    Happy Wednesday folks! Today we have the lovely Alex on the show, going through workplace bullying with us. We have all had questionable workplaces (hospo @ 15, hello) or fallen victim to a mean boss or cruel co-worker. Alex, a passionate young employment lawyer, takes us through your options if you find yourself in this very situation. It is intriguing and so useful, and we are ridiculously grateful to Alex for giving up her time. Alex is also an ambassador for Yes Queen, an Australian initiative addressing bullying in the workplace. Their mission is to future-proof wellbeing at work by erasing bullying and cultivating safe, positive and inclusive cultures. In Yes Queen's words...“We spend so much of our lives working; let’s make it an empowering and soul-nourishing experience for everyone”.

    Crime: For Fluff's Sake

    Today we are talking about everyone's favourite topic - DOGS! That may have been click bait because we actually take a bit of a delve into animal cruelty - what it is, what it covers and who investigates it. We tell a fair few fluffy stories about the little creatures we love (a little smoodle called Norman, mainly) and implore you to report any complaints to RSPCA if you see something that just doesn't look right. We get so much love from our little furry friends (all creatures, great and small - does that trigger anyone to that ad a few years ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vO5qXw-WTDk). Come along with us - this one is short, sweet and a little serious somewhere around 10 minutes. Enjoy! ----------------------- Show notes: If you want to report an instance of animal cruelty, please visit RSCPA's website at https://rspcavic.org/services/inspectorate/report-cruelty/  Sources for today's ep are: - https://agriculture.vic.gov.au/livestock-and-animals/livestock-health-and-welfare/report-animal-cruelty - https://agriculture.vic.gov.au/livestock-and-animals/animal-welfare-victoria/pocta-act-1986/about-the-prevention-of-cruelty-to-animals-legislation - https://content.legislation.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/2020-04/86-46aa096%20authorised.pdf - https://www.sentencingcouncil.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/2019-08/Animal_Cruelty_Offences_in_Victoria.pdf - https://www.sentencingcouncil.vic.gov.au/sites/default/files/2019-08/Animal_Cruelty_Offences_in_Victoria_Factsheet.pdf - https://www.armstronglegal.com.au/criminal-law/vic/offences/aggravated-cruelty/ - https://www.gotocourt.com.au/criminal-law/vic/animal-cruelty-offences/#:~:text=The%20offence%20of%20animal%20cruelty,to%20%2496%2C614%20for%20a%20corporation) ------------- Music: Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com DISCLAIMER: https://www.intheknowpodcast.com/disclaimer

    Interview: Lawyer Life

    How the heck is it March already?? We are asking ourselves the same question...it has been a busy week but we managed to squeeze in a quick chat with the lovely Maddy, a Brisbane based employment lawyer. Maddy takes us through her experiences as a young lawyer, navigating the workplace after graduation and getting involved. Maddy came out as trans in 2019 and gives us such an eloquent insight into being a trans woman while also being a working professional. Her story is inspiring and we walked away feeling both invigorated and educated. We cannot wait for you to listen!
