New York employers must now tell applicants when they encounter AI

July 10, 2023

New York City’s automated employment decision tools (AEDT) law, enacted in 2021, was enforced on July 5, 2023. Domenique Moran was featured in CBS News article “New York employers must now tell applicants when they encounter AI” speaking on what job-hunters in New York City can expect.

“If in fact the employers are using an automated employment decision tool (AEDT), then the employer has to commission an independent audit, publish a summary, tell applicants and employees they’re using it, and give applicants the opportunity to have an accommodation and pursue an alternative selection process,” Domenique Camacho Moran, an employment attorney at Farrell Fritz, told CBS MoneyWatch. “We are only talking about those tools that take the place of human people making decisions.”
