Illinois AI employment law is active. The notice rules are not final.
IDHR withdrew/postponed the proposed AI-in-employment notice rules and canceled the June public hearing while it reviews next steps with other state agencies. Public Act 103-0804 remains in force, so employers still need a clean file showing tools, vendor evidence, assumptions, and review questions.
The file matters before the final answer.
Most employers will not start with complete certainty. They will start with scattered facts: which tools are used, what vendors say, what notices exist, who approves changes, and which workflows affect Illinois applicants or employees.
- Tool inventoryList ATS, sourcing, assessment, video interview, chatbot, scheduling, HRIS, and general AI tools used in hiring or employment workflows.
- Vendor evidenceRequest documentation on matching, scoring, ranking, recommendations, screening, summaries, validation, bias testing, and customer configuration.
- Notice-readinessDocument whether applicant or employee notices exist, who approved them, and what facts they depend on.
- Review trailTrack assignee, status, review date, open questions, and when vendor or workflow changes require a refresh.
Statute active. Rule details pending.
Current operating read: Public Act 103-0804 remains the enacted law. IDHR withdrew/postponed the proposed notice rules on June 2, 2026, so the withdrawn proposal is useful context but not a final binding rule.

Review note: this page is an operational tracker. Final notice language, policies, and legal conclusions stay behind HR/legal/counsel review.
AegisReview organizes the record. HR, compliance, and legal counsel make the final calls.
The product is built as a workflow and evidence file. That makes it useful for employers that need to move quickly while keeping final commitments behind review, especially while IDHR timing and implementation details remain unsettled.
