Require worker voice in AI deployment decisions
Notice, consultation, or bargaining before AI systems are used to manage, surveil, or replace workers; no fully automated discipline or termination.
Where it stands
Partially adopted for public-sector AI use: New York's LOADinG Act (Dec 2024) requires human review of consequential automated decisions, impact assessments, and limits on displacing state workers; Illinois HB 3773 (in force Jan 1, 2026) adds employee notice when AI is used in employment decisions. Private-sector consultation mandates remain unadopted in every tracked jurisdiction: the TUC's draft UK bill has not been taken up, and US federal AI policy contains no worker-consultation provisions (the July 2025 Action Plan speaks to upskilling only).

TUC publishes its draft Artificial Intelligence (Regulation and Employment Rights) Bill proposing mandatory worker consultation before high-risk workplace AI deployment

NY LOADinG Act signed: human review, impact assessments, and workforce-displacement limits for state-agency automated decision systems
“High-risk decision-making shall not take place unless, at least one month before the high-risk decision-making takes place, the employer has taken into account the concerns and interests of workers or employees who are or may be affected by it.”
Draft bill by Robin Allen KC and Dee Masters for the TUC.
“Rather, it addresses these risks by specifically requiring human oversight of high-risk systems, subjecting systems to comprehensive pre-deployment and biennial impact assessments, and protecting the critical role of trained workers in government decision-making.”
Op-ed co-authored by NYS AFL-CIO President Mario Cilento and Sen. Kristen Gonzalez.
“Americans who work for a living deserve more. We need sensible guardrails to ensure jobs aren't decimated, guarantees of meaningful human oversight of the technology, and the exploration of a national four-day work week at full-time pay.”
Statement of Lorena Gonzalez condemning the AI Action Plan; coded support relative to worker-guardrail asks.
