Utah Labor Commission ALJ Promoted to Director of Commission’s Adjudication Division

August 22, 2017 by WorkCompWire

Salt Lake City, UT – The Utah Labor Commission has a new director of its Adjudication Division.

Brian Stewart has been appointed by Commissioner Jaceson Maughan to head the division whose seven administrative law judges conduct the Labor Commission’s formal hearings on such matters as workers’ compensation claim denials, employment and housing discrimination, and occupational safety and health violations and penalties.

Stewart will also serve as chief administrative law judge.

“The Adjudication Division takes very seriously its responsibility to provide timely and correct decisions,” he said. “I look forward to ensuring that the division continues to provide excellent services and to improve our processes where appropriate.”

Stewart has been with the Utah Labor Commission for more than eight years, first in its Antidiscrimination and Labor Division and for the past four years in the Adjudication Division as an administrative law judge.

Stewart is a graduate of Michigan State University College of Law where he was editor-in-chief of the university’s Journal of International Law. He also served as president of the student chapter of the university’s J. Reuben Clark Law Society. Stewart earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Brigham Young University. Before joining the Utah Labor Commission, Stewart was in private practice and worked in the Michigan attorney general’s office.

The Utah Labor Commission is a state agency that works to achieve safety for employers and employees in the state’s workplaces and ensure fairness in employment and housing through services that include consultation, education, inspections, compliance, and mediation.
