The New York City Department of Consumer and Worker Protection on Thursday adopted final rules implementing the city’s law regulating the use of artificial intelligence tools in hiring, which will take effect on July 5, The National Law Review reported. The law restricts the use of AI by employers and employment agencies by requiring that such tools be subjected to bias audits. In addition, the law requires employers and employment agencies to notify employees and job candidates that such tools are being used to evaluate them. The final rules come after the department first proposed it in September 2022; it was revised in December 2022 after a public hearing.
