Overview:

AI-driven hiring tools have gained widespread adoption, promising to make recruiting more efficient, faster, and objective.

However, recent research and legal cases have demonstrated that these tools can introduce or reinforce hiring biases, leading to potential violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and other employment laws. The EEOC has made it clear that companies cannot shield themselves from liability by claiming that AI, not humans, made a discriminatory hiring decision.

This webinar will explore the regulatory landscape surrounding AI in hiring, with a focus on how HR professionals can proactively audit their hiring processes to detect and mitigate bias. We will cover the latest legal actions taken by the EEOC, discuss how to identify red flags in AI-powered recruiting tools, and provide actionable steps for ensuring compliance.

We will also discuss the role of AI transparency laws in states like Illinois, New York, and California, which require organizations to conduct AI audits and disclose how hiring algorithms function. This session will provide HR leaders, compliance officers, and recruiters with best practices for leveraging AI ethically and legally in their hiring processes.

Why should you Attend: AI-powered hiring tools promise efficiency, but they also present serious risks. If your organization is using, or considering using, AI for recruiting, you cannot afford to ignore the legal landscape. The EEOC is actively pursuing cases where AI-driven hiring systems disproportionately impact protected classes, and new state and federal regulations are emerging to mandate transparency and fairness. In some cases, companies have been required to discontinue their AI systems altogether or pay significant settlements due to discriminatory outcomes.
