HB3773 - LIMIT PREDICTIVE ANALYTICS USE
Amends the Illinois Human Rights Act. Provides that an employer that uses predictive data analytics in its employment decisions may not consider the applicant's biographical information, such as race or zip code, when used as a proxy for race to reject an applicant in the context of recruiting, hiring, promotion, renewal of employment, selection for training or apprenticeship, discharge, discipline, tenure or terms, privileges, or conditions of employment. Provides that nothing in the Act shall be construed to prevent the use of predictive data analytics to support an inclusive and diverse workforce. Further amends the Employment Article of the Illinois Human Rights Act. Provides that it is a civil rights violation: (1) with respect to recruitment, hiring, promotion, renewal of employment, selection for training or apprenticeship, discharge, discipline, tenure, or the terms, privileges, or conditions of employment, for an employer to use artificial intelligence that has the effect of subjecting employees to discrimination on the basis of protected classes identified under the Article or to use zip codes as a proxy for protected classes identified under the Article; and (2) for an employer to fail to provide notice to an employee that the employer is using artificial intelligence.
