Jason has represented employers in the following industries:

• Health care
• Trucking
• Food and retail distribution

• Government contracting
• Public sector

Jason also routinely counsels human resource professionals on the administration of federal and state employment statutes such as:

He also advises clients in union and non-union settings regarding the drafting and implementation of employee handbooks and personnel policies.

Earlier in his career, Jason served as assistant general counsel to the Mayor's Office of Labor Relations for the City of New York. In that position, he represented the city and its police department in hundreds of labor arbitrations and unfair labor practice proceedings.
