Beginning October 1, 2025, California employers must comply with new Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) regulations on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) and automated decision systems in hiring and employment. The rules primarily pertain to three compliance areas: bias testing, recordkeeping, and vendor liability. Employers should start preparing now to avoid exposure once the rules take effect.
