AI, Algorithms and the Canadian Workplace
Algorithms already screen your applicants, watch your workforce and flag your hazards. One afternoon on what Canadian law expects from the people who use them.
is presented by
Artificial intelligence has moved from pilot project to everyday tool. Employers use it to sort applicants, set schedules, measure output and spot hazards. Employees use it to write, research and analyze, often without a policy telling them what's allowed.
The rules already apply. Employment standards, privacy legislation, human rights codes, health and safety statutes and collective agreements all reach decisions made with the help of an algorithm.
Code of Conduct gives HR, legal and safety leaders a practical map of where AI helps, where it creates liability and what Canadian law already requires.
Choosing, rolling out and defending AI tools in recruitment and people management.
Advising on privacy, human rights and dismissal exposure tied to AI.
Using AI-driven monitoring and analytics in the safety program.
Writing the policies and vendor contracts that set the rules.
A keynote and four 45-minute sessions with live Q&A. We're in the call-for-speakers stage, so session titles and descriptions are proposed and may change as speakers are confirmed. All times ET.
How existing Canadian employment, privacy and human rights law applies to AI at work, and what's coming next.
Speaker to be announced
AI in recruiting and screening, disclosure rules for job postings, and how to keep automated tools from producing discriminatory outcomes.
Speaker to be announced
Productivity tracking and electronic monitoring: policy requirements, privacy obligations and how arbitrators and courts are responding.
Speaker to be announced
Computer vision, wearables and predictive analytics in health and safety, and who carries the due diligence burden when the system misses a hazard.
Speaker to be announced
Acceptable-use rules for generative AI, governance, training, discipline and the vendor contract terms that protect the employer.
Speaker to be announced
Proposed program. Session titles, descriptions and times may change as speakers are confirmed.
