  • If you are an employer that has 25 or more employees on the day you post a publicly advertised job posting, and you use artificial intelligence to screen, assess or select applicants for the position, include a statement in the posting disclosing that you use artificial intelligence for that purpose.
  • This duty applies only to an external job posting you advertise to the general public. It does not reach a posting restricted to your existing employees, a general recruitment campaign or help wanted sign that does not advertise a specific position, or a posting for a position whose work is to be performed outside Ontario, or partly outside Ontario where the work outside Ontario is not a continuation of work performed in Ontario.
