AI has gotten quite far in automating various business functions and Human Resources is no exception to that. From simplifying the recruitment process to talent management, everything can be made easy with AI. But there is another critical thing that AI can help businesses with and that is labor law compliance. This is something businesses have to look out for the most. This is also a sector where businesses have a chance to mess up and ruin their reputation. AI can automate the processes required for these compliances and reduce any sort of errors that might occur.
For example–
Classic Collision, One of the largest collision repair service providers in the U.S. has successfully leveraged AI to streamline compliance with local labor laws across hundreds of locations in 15 states. As the company expanded, managing compliance with diverse state regulations, such as mandatory breaks and accurate timekeeping, became increasingly challenging. This is where AI made a significant impact.
Labor laws vary in each state. Take the case of California for example. Employees there must take a 30-minute lunch break after 4.5 hours of work. AI solutions can be programmed to track employee work hours in real-time and send automated reminders to ensure compliance. This reduces the risk of violations and potential fines, allowing businesses to maintain operational efficiency without worrying about legal issues.
Getting the employees’ work hours right is also a part of the local labor laws. In such cases, AI can be programmed to ask the employees to attest their weekly punches before they punch out from work on the last day of the week. This helps to maintain the accuracy of recorded work hours and establish trust between the employees and the employers.
According to The Washington Post, in June 2024, Amazon was fined $5.9 million for breaking labor law in California.
