New York Employers Need to Prepare for 3 New AI Laws That Could Soon Impact the Workplace
New York lawmakers recently passed several bills that would impose new AI reporting and disclosure requirements on businesses, including proposed amendments to the RAISE Act that would continue to build out a comprehensive AI governance framework. If signed by Governor Hochul, these measures would impose new obligations on employers and other businesses that use AI tools in hiring, staffing operations,and customer-facing applications. Here is what employers should know about the three big changes they could soon face.
1. Employers Could Soon Have To Report How AI is Affecting Jobs
The most significant proposal would require certain businesses to report annually to the New York State Department of Labor on how AI is affecting hiring and business practices. The bill would require businesses with more than 50 employees, as well as publicly traded companies, to estimate and report how AI is affecting their workforce. Reports would need to include:
* estimates of employees displaced;
* employees whose hours were reduced;
* employees hired or whose hours increased; and
* positions left unfilled in full or in part due to AI use.
Covered businesses would also need to describe the objectives of their AI use, human oversight measures, frequency and duration of use, use involving sensitive personal data, and risk-reduction measures.
Failure to comply could result in penalties of up to $500 per day, although employers would have a 90-day opportunity to cure violations.
The proposal builds on New York's broader effort to understand how artificial intelligence is affecting the workplace. Last year, Governor Hochul directed the Department of Labor to begin collecting information about whether layoffs are connected to employers' use of AI, and the agency subsequently updated its WARN reporting process to request that information from businesses submitting layoff notices. This new bill would take that effort a significant step further by requiring covered businesses to report annually on AI's impact on hiring, staffing, hours worked, and positions left unfilled.
Bill Leaves 2 Major Questions Unanswered
The bill does not answer two key questions that could leave employers confused:
* How should we define "artificial intelligence"? The bill neither defines the term nor incorporates an existing definition. That matters because employers have used automated, algorithmic, and AI-enabled tools for years. It remains unclear whether the bill is intended to capture only newer generative AI tools or whether it would also apply to technologies such as applicant tracking systems, scheduling tools, productivity platforms, workforce analytics tools, chatbots, or software products that have recently added AI functionality.
* The bill expressly covers impacts caused "in full or in part" by AI use - but how will that standard be applied in practice? For example, employers may need to determine when a hiring increase was attributable to AI-assisted recruiting, whether a position remained unfilled because AI improved productivity alongside budget constraints, or whether reduced work volume resulted from AI tools, changing business conditions, or a combination of factors. If this bill is enacted, employers would need to think about how they would identify covered AI tools, track workforce impacts, and document the basis for any estimates included in an annual report.
2. RAISE Act Amendments Signal New York's Broader AI Strategy
New York lawmakers also passed amendments to the RAISE Act, which Governor Hochul mandated when signing the original legislation last year. The law, which takes effect January 1, 2027, regulates certain frontier AI models developed, deployed, or operating in New York and imposes obligations on frontier developers, with additional requirements for large frontier developers.
The new amendments substantially revised the original legislation by:
* aligning certain definitions and thresholds with California's frontier AI law;
* clarifying that companies merely using, licensing, hosting, deploying, or building applications on third-party models are not frontier developers;
* creating a new oversight office within the New York Department of Financial Services;
* requiring transparency reports and public frontier AI frameworks;
* adding reporting obligations for catastrophic-risk assessments and critical safety incidents; and reducing certain penalties.
For most employers, the RAISE Act will matter most if they develop covered frontier models or rely on vendors that do. More broadly, however, the law signals New York's continuing effort to build a broad AI governance framework focused on transparency, safety, accountability, and workforce-impact visibility.
3. Generative AI Warning Notices Could Become Mandatory
A separate bill, S934A/A3411, would require the owner, licensee, or operator of a generative AI system to clearly and conspicuously display a notice informing users that AI-generated outputs may be inaccurate. If enacted, the law would take effect 90 days after signing. Violations could result in civil penalties of up to $1,000 per violation, with each user who is not provided the required notice constituting a separate violation.
Employers using third-party generative AI tools, embedding AI into customer-facing chatbots, or offering AI tools to employees should evaluate whether they could qualify as the owner, licensee, or operator of a covered system and whether the required notice would remain visible throughout the user experience.
What New York Employers Should Do Now
Employers in New York should consider taking these steps to keep up with the changes:
* Inventory AI and AI-enabled tools used in HR, recruiting, operations, customer service, and compliance.
* Identify tools that may affect hiring, staffing, hours, job duties, productivity, or workforce planning.
* Determine who owns AI governance. Identify the business, HR, legal, IT or compliance stakeholders responsible for tracking AI use and evaluating evolving legal requirements.
* Document human oversight and escalation procedures.
* Review whether user-facing generative AI tools warn that outputs may be inaccurate.
* Ask vendors about AI functionality, training data, sensitive data, risk controls, and notice obligations.

We will continue to monitor developments in AI regulation and workplace technology, so make sure you are subscribed to Fisher Phillips' Insight System to receive the latest updates.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minnesota, June 24 -- Faegre Drinker Biddle and Reath, a law firm, issued the following commentary on June 23, 2026, by associate William R. Heaston and partner Jeffrey P. Justman:
* * *
Supreme Court Decides Cisco Systems, Inc. v. Doe
On June 23, 2026, the US Supreme Court decided Cisco Systems, Inc. v. Doe, No. 24-856, holding that courts may not create new rights of action to remedy violations of international norms, and also that there is necessarily no liability for aiding and abetting such violations.
The plaintiffs were practitioners of Falun Gong, a religious movement thatbegan in China in the 1990s. They alleged that the Chinese government persecuted them for their beliefs, and that Cisco Systems, Inc., enabled their persecution by developing surveillance technology that helped the Chinese government identify and apprehend them. The plaintiffs sued Cisco and its executives for aiding and abetting violations of international law, relying on the Alien Tort Statute (ATS). One plaintiff also sued two Cisco executives for aiding and abetting torture under the Tort Victim Prosecution Act of 1991 (TVPA). The Ninth Circuit determined that the plaintiffs could bring their aiding and abetting claims under the ATS and the TVPA.
The Supreme Court reversed. The Court began by acknowledging a "tension" in its prior decision under the ATS in Sosa v. Alvarez-Machain, 542 U.S. 692 (2004). There, the Court stressed that "the ATS is a jurisdictional statute creating no new causes of action," but said at the same time "that the ATS allows for the possibility of new, judicially created causes of action to enforce norms of international law." Sosa articulated a two-step framework for when this "very modest authority to create causes of action under the ATS for violations of international norms" may be exercised: (1) plaintiffs must show that the international norm has a "definite content and acceptance among civilized nations"; and (2) plaintiffs must show "it would be prudent for the court to create the proposed cause of action when the political branches have not acted."
The Court rejected the plaintiffs' theory of aiding and abetting international law violations under the ATS, holding that courts "cannot create new rights of action to remedy violations of international law, so there is necessarily no liability for aiding and abetting such violations." In so doing, the Court "close[d] the door that Sosa cracked to judicially created ATS liability." The Court reasoned that it was "difficult to think of a case in which a court 'might safely conclude' that a new ATS cause of action would not have detrimental foreign policy consequences." The Court also stressed that the "power to create causes of action belongs to Congress," which is in a better position than courts "to evaluate the policy tradeoffs of creating liability." It noted: "judicially created causes of action offend the separation of powers in almost every circumstance."
The Court also rejected the argument that the TVPA provides for aiding-and-abetting liability. It reasoned that when Congress seeks to impose such liability, it does so "expressly." Because the TVPA "nowhere mentions aiding-and-abetting liability," "that silence [was] enough to settle the issue."
Justice Barrett delivered the opinion of the Court, which Chief Justice Roberts and Justices Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, and Kavanaugh joined. Justice Jackson filed an opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part, which Justice Kagan joined. Justice Sotomayor filed a dissenting opinion, which Justices Kagan and Jackson joined in part.

Driving credible climate action: HSF Kramer supports SBTi's Corporate Net Zero Standard 2.0
Leading global law firm Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer has provided strategic legal support to the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) in connection with the development of its new Corporate Net-Zero Standard Version 2.0 (CNZS V2.0).
SBTi is a corporate climate action organisation that enables companies and financial institutions worldwide to play their part in combating the climate crisis. In thiscapacity, it is one of the world's fastest-growing voluntary corporate climate initiatives, trusted by over 11,000 companies and financial institutions.
The CNZS V2.0 is SBTi's most comprehensive framework for corporate climate action to date, with an expanded toolkit for setting and implementing targets. It makes credible, science-based climate action practical, accessible, and relevant for companies at every stage of the net-zero journey.
The firm conducted a legal review of successive drafts of the CNZS V2.0, suggesting amendments to mitigate legal and reputational exposure to the SBTi and companies operating under the CNZS arising from the CNZS V2.0 requirements, its claims framework, and the new responsibilities SBTi assumes in this version of the standard in relation to the assurance model and additional validation cycle assessments. In addition to identifying risks, the firm provided a mitigation strategy across a range of post-publication workstreams.
The Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer team was led by partner Sarah Ries-Coward, supported by UK head of ESG Jannis Bille, of counsel Ernst Muller and Leonie Timmers, and associate (Australia) Olivia Battcock. The team worked closely with Will Grazebrook, general counsel at SBTi.
Partner Sarah Ries-Coward commented: "In the net-zero transition, rigorous and practical frameworks are key to turn ambition into credible action. We are proud to have worked with SBTi across successive drafts of this landmark standard, providing strategic legal advice on the risk and mitigation architecture that underpins the CNZS V2.0."
