Missouri Labor and Industrial Relations Commission now using Box

The commission is now accepting electronic filings through Box, a virtual mailbox system, in an attempt to provide better service to Missouri residents.

On Friday, The Missouri Labor and Industrial Relations Commission (LIRC) announced today that it is now accepting electronic filings through the use of Box Account, a virtual mailbox.

Usage of the electronic system is being done in an attempt to provide faster, improved service to Missouri residents.

Previously, LIRC had been accepting filings through email. With Box, the new electronic mail system will provide law firms with a date-stamped copy of filed documents as well as provide efficiencies in processing those filings, according to a Friday news release from the Missouri Department of Labor.

Although creating an account is required for an individual to use the system, it is free.

LIRC’s primary constitutional duty, according to the labor department, is to oversee the Missouri Department of Labor and Industrial Relations (DOLIR) in appeals of workers’ compensation, unemployment insurance and tort victims’ claims as well as prevailing wage objections.
