New Jersey A1021 establishes standards for independent bias auditing of automated employment decision tools.

New Jersey A1021 sets forth standards for independent bias auditing of automated employment decision tools (AEDT). The bill mandates that employers and employment agencies must not use or continue to use an AEDT if more than one year has passed since the most recent bias audit. A bias audit must include a rigorous assessment of the AEDT's impact on various categories, identification of biases, and actionable recommendations to mitigate risks.
