argument: Notizie/News - Labor Law / Employment Law

  • According to an article from TechTarget, a federal judge in California has allowed key claims in a lawsuit against Workday to proceed. Derek Mobley, the plaintiff, alleges that Workday’s AI hiring algorithms are biased against individuals based on race, age, and disability. Mobley claims repeated job rejections due to these biases. U.S. District Court Judge Rita Lin dismissed some claims but found sufficient evidence for the core allegations, emphasizing the need for AI hiring tools to comply with discrimination laws.
