Regulation of HR Tech: The Key Laws You Need to Know [October 2025]

AI has become ubiquitous in HR, with 1 in 4 organizations leveraging automation to streamline tasks and allow humans to focus their efforts where they matter most. As a result, organizations are seeing benefits such as reduced time to higher, greater workforce diversity, better employee and candidate experiences, and more effective training and interventions.

However, with great power comes great responsibility. Employment decisions are already highly regulated by equal opportunity legislation around the world, but AI brings novel risks that can result in biased outcomes if they are not detected and mitigated effectively. Doing so requires a more unique approach compared to traditional HR processes, including third-party bias audits to detect adverse impact.

To address these novel risks, policymakers around the world have begun to introduce laws targeting HR technologies, but keeping up with them can feel like an impossible task.

In our updated 2025 white paper, we cut through the noise, providing an overview of the key laws affecting HR tech around the world that you need to have on your radar whether you are an employer or vendor.
