SESCO Management Consultants says legislation regulating artificial intelligence (AI) will be one of several important trends to track in 2025.
SESCO, which is based in Bristol, Tenn., advises tire dealerships on human resource matters.
“As 2025 approaches, the legal landscape for employer use of artificial intelligence is poised for further evolution,” say SESCO officials.
“In 2024 alone, over 400 AI-related bills were introduced across 41 states - a substantial increase from prior years. While Congress has yet to take decisive action, the trends from 2024 suggest a continued rise in state-led AI policies and federal agency guidance in 2025.”
SESCO also says that with the incoming Trump administration, it’s likely there will be changes at the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), including the unwinding of “many of the Biden Administration-era NLRB’s more controversial decisions, including its notable decisions which changed the standard for review of employer rules and policies and which concocted a union-friendly procedure for recognition without any election.”
Also noteworthy as 2024 winds down is that the Federal Trade Commission’s rule banning non-compete agreements, which went into effect this past summer, has come “under fire in federal litigation and has been blocked.”
