Learn More about RON

As social distancing becomes more common due to the COVID-19 Remote Online Notarization (RON) may be a resourceful tool. As of January 1, 2020, Florida has passed a law that authorizes the notarization of documents using an online platform. RON will allow a notarial act to be completed without the need of the same physical location as the Notary Public. 
To conduct a RON, both signer and Notary must be in a RON platform. An electronic format of the document will be uploaded into the RON platform. The platform has the audiovisual technology that allows the notary to see, hear, and communicate with the signer. If the signer is not in the state of Florida, the notary public confirms that the signer wants document notarized by a Florida Notary and under Florida Law. Once the Notary Public verifies the Notary Public identity and Notary is confident that the signer is not being coerced and is mentally competent both the signer and Notary sign the document electronically. The Notary attaches an electronic seal, and the document is ready to be retrieved by the signer.  This new system allows clients to get their documents notarized no matter their location and gives notaries the ability to notarize documents without leaving the comfort of their homes.

A SUBCONTRACTOR’S HOSTILE WORK ENVIRONMENT CAN BE A GENERAL CONTRACTOR’S LIABILITY

-
     In December 2013, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals held that a general contractor could be liable under Title VII for a hostile work environment claim brought by a subcontractor’s employee under a “joint employer theory.” EEOC v. Skanska USA Building, Inc. , No. 12-5967 (6 th Cir. Dec 10, 2013). In Skanska , the subcontractor’s employees complained directly to the general contractor about the hostile work environment, alleging that they were the subject of racial slurs and epithets including “the n-word” and were subjected to graphic depictions such as a picture of a Caucasian person shooting an African-American posted in the port-a-potty. The alleged offenders were employees of the general contractor, other subcontractors, and third parties. Despite having knowledge of the complaints, the general contractor took no action to remedy the problem, instead directing the subcontractor to fire the complaining employee due to them being a “poor fit.”      Why was the general con
