Evidence on AI and work
Reporting archive

California has enacted new worker-protection laws that limit some uses of AI in discipline, firing, surveillance, and layoff notice. The rules add human review and disclosure requirements for certain workplace decisions.

California’s SB 947 is now on Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk after legislative approval and enrollment, with the bill targeting AI-only firing and discipline decisions and requiring notice and human oversight in covered cases.
