argument: Decisioni/Decisions - Labor Law / Employment Law
According to an article on Law.com, a federal judge in San Francisco has allowed a lawsuit to proceed against Workday, challenging its AI-driven hiring tool. The plaintiffs allege that the tool disproportionately excludes job applicants who are Black, disabled, and over 40 due to biased training data. This case, overseen by Judge Rita Lin of the Northern District of California, could set a significant precedent regarding the use of AI in hiring practices. The outcome may influence how companies develop and implement AI technologies in HR to ensure fairness and compliance with anti-discrimination laws.
