    Reading the Tea Leaves: What Legislative Issues Employers Will See in 2023

    w/ 

    Josh Leadford, Partner, Masud Labor Law

    Joshua J. Leadford of the Masud Labor Law Group will present an informative and interactive seminar for VHSRM’smembers and guests concerning what legislative issues to anticipate as the calendar turns to 2023. Whether it’s expanded paid sick leave, issues concerning the minimum wage, or entirely new legislative efforts, Josh will clue you in on what you should be aware of so you can ensure your business is up to speed.

    Josh is a partner with Masud Labor Law Group and joined the firm in 2011. He focuses his practice exclusively on representing management in labor and employment law matters. During his tenure, Josh has successfully defended employers in numerous arbitrations, unfair labor practice cases, discrimination claims, other labor and employment related matters, and provides first chair representation in collective bargaining matters. Josh is admitted to practice in all state and federal courts for the State of Michigan, including the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals.

    Before beginning his legal career, Josh gained significant experience dealing with labor and employment related issues. He worked for a unionized employer as a supervisor and confronted labor issues head on. The workplace division between management and union proved intriguing and, thereafter,  Josh focused his education on employment related matters earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Resource Management from Central Michigan University.

    After graduating from Central Michigan, Josh began law school and was selected for a clerkship with the Michigan Employment Relations Commission where he worked directly in the contentious area of public sector labor law. Josh graduated from Thomas M. Cooley Law School where he focused his studies in the area of labor and employment law. In addition to graduating Magna Cum Laude, he received Book Awards in several courses, including Collective Bargaining.
