The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) recently issued guidelines for employers on principles and best practices for artificial intelligence (AI) and employer well-being. These guidelines build on the Biden administration's 2023 executive order on AI, which stressed the need to ensure that AI supports and provides worker opportunities rather than harms and expands inequalities. The Partnership on AI, which consists of various tech companies and nonprofit organizations such as Google and Microsoft, has endorsed the DOL's AI guidelines.

These guidelines aim to support collective bargaining rights for employees, ensure that employees are aware of how employers use AI in the workplace, and protect workers' rights to data privacy. At the same time, the guidelines encourage employers to support workers whose positions have been displaced by AI.
