Press Release
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing the way we all do business. Falling under a variety of names and definitions – automated decision systems, machine learning, cognitive computing, automated reasoning, robotics – the technology is evolving (quickly!) to streamline and standardize processes that have been performed manually and with human influence throughout history.
As a result, HR departments are facing a rapidly evolving compliance landscape as AI tools become embedded in everyday workplace processes. What used to be straightforward HR governance now includes monitoring algorithmic decision-making, ensuring transparency in automated systems, and preventing bias in AI-supported hiring, performance, and workforce-management tools. Regulations are emerging at the federal and state levels, and employers are increasingly expected to document how AI is used, audited, and supervised.
HR professionals must quickly upskill and adapt—developing new policies, controls, and oversight practices to keep their organizations compliant and their employees protected. Leading employers have relied on HR Works for over 30 years to guide them through changes in the Human Resources field, and AI is no different.
