AI in HR: Enhancing Investigations While Managing Litigation Risks

The term “artificial intelligence” might be the phrase of 2025. It’s written and spoken about virtually everywhere by practically everyone, and it essentially markets itself as the newest, shiniest, and most efficient tool for every industry to consider and put into practice.

But the term “artificial intelligence” is quite broad. The definition of AI is broadened even further when considering that different technologies can be combined to create new AI systems. Despite the ever-expanding definition of AI, it is important to take inventory of the different types of AI to determine which, if any, is best suited for a workplace investigation.

How AI Can Help in Workplace Investigations

• Data management, analysis, and pattern recognition. Deploying AI in a workplace investigation can streamline an often long and intensive process by organizing, synthesizing, and digesting large amounts of data.
• Because AI tools are analyzing documents while sorting, an investigator can employ searches to identify information such as patterns, involved parties, and problematic documents, allowing for the creation of visual timelines of the event.

Compliance Considerations and Concerns with AI

• State laws, federal laws, and discrimination liability.
• Some states have started to enact legislation that regulates the use of AI in the workplace, many of which require consent by employees before deploying a program and require regular maintenance of the programs.
• In addition, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission issued guidelines reinforcing the principle that investigators can be held liable for discrimination, even when it results from the use of AI.

Why Should You Attend:

Investigators using AI in employment investigations continue to expose themselves to liability under the Fair Labor Standards Act, Family and Medical Leave Act, and Employee Polygraph Protection Act, depending on the recommendation resulting from the investigation. Employers need to be aware of how they utilize AI in the workplace will determine their liability and litigation impact.
