From www.goingconcern.com: [US context]A federal judge has allowed a class action lawsuit against Workday to proceed, initiated by five plaintiffs over the age of 40 who claim the company’s AI hiring system discriminated against them based on age, violating the Age Discrimination in Employment Act.

The plaintiffs allege they were filtered out of job applications without interviews after applying to multiple positions, while Workday contends its system does not provide employment recommendations.

As the case progresses, the plaintiffs will seek to identify other affected individuals to join the suit, despite Workday’s assertions that no collective group exists under the conditions described.
