Bill > S08706

This bill requires "covered businesses," defined as entities doing business in the state that employ over one hundred people or are publicly traded, to annually report to the Department of Labor about how artificial intelligence (AI) has impacted their hiring and business practices in the previous year, including details on employee displacement or hiring due to AI, and the nature of AI usage. The Department of Labor will then use these reports to create its own annual report on the statewide impact of AI on hiring and business practices, which will be made public and submitted to state officials. The bill also establishes penalties, specifically a civil penalty of up to five hundred dollars per day for non-compliance, though businesses will have ninety days to correct violations to potentially avoid or reduce these penalties.
