In the latest episode of the We Get AI for Work™ podcast, host Joe Lazzarotti interviews Bryon Bass, CEO of the Disability Management Employer Coalition (DMEC), discussing the intersection of evolving technology, particularly AI, and workplace law. As organizations assess the implementation of AI in decision-making, they must navigate compliance with varying federal and state regulations. Bryon emphasizes the importance of avoiding discriminatory practices, especially concerning leave, disability, and accommodations under laws like the FMLA. An AI think tank conducted by DMEC revealed that while 85% of HR professionals see AI as a tool for efficiency, there are substantial gaps in understanding and formal policies about its use. Key recommendations include ensuring human oversight in AI-related decisions, developing a robust vendor RFP process, and fostering an environment of transparency and ethical use of technology. For more insights, DMEC’s upcoming annual conference will further address these critical issues.
