Workday faces lawsuit over AI bias in job application screenings

Workday is facing a lawsuit alleging its AI tools discriminate against job applicants based on race, age, and disability, violating California and federal laws. A California judge rejected Workday's argument that these laws do not apply to non-California applicants. The case, a proposed class action, was filed in 2023 by Derek Mobley and others, including Jill Hughes, who claims discrimination under the ADA.
