Rule 19(a) / Re-referred to Rules Committee
Summary
The bill bans Illinois public agencies and their contractors from using automated decision‑making tools for certain employment functions unless a qualified person continuously reviews the outcomes. Employers must conduct an impact assessment when the system is first used, repeat it at least every two years, and redo it before any material change. It also gives employees the right to sue and lets the Department of Labor enforce the rules.
