Logging duty
Section 26 requires an employer to disclose to the Labor Department, in a form and manner the Labor Commissioner prescribes, whether WARN Act layoffs relate to the employer's use of artificial intelligence. It never uses the words logs, records or audit trail, but a form filed in a prescribed manner is a document the employer completes and the department retains, so the duty is implicit.
