The relaxation of COVID settings this week reinforces the need for good record keeping.
The Victorian Government announced on Tuesday that the 75 per cent cap on office workers will be removed from Friday 26 March.
All workplaces are still required to ensure people can work from the office in a COVIDSafe way with a density limit of one person per two square metres.
While it is not mandatory for offices to use the Victorian government QR Code or a system which is API compatible, digital record keeping is strongly recommended to help contact tracing.

All businesses must continue to review and update their COVIDSafe Plan, particularly as more people return to offices.
Download and display the signage available to remind people to check-in and other safety measures.
Remember, if your workers have even mild COVID-19 symptoms, please support them to get tested.
Public Transport Victoria has made changes to support the safe return to offices and has advice for users at ptv.vic.gov.au/more/coronavirus-covid-19.
Visit coronavirus.vic.gov.au for more information or call Business Victoria on 13 22 15. If you need an interpreter, call the coronavirus (COVID-19) hotline 1800 675 398 and press 0.
Kind regards,
The Industry Coordination and Recovery team
