Can you quote the definition of bias from the links you provided?

  I didn’t directly cite all relevant code that exists, there is more regulation cited by the links I gave you might need to follow. It’s easier to visit https://www.eeoc.gov/ https://www.eeoc.gov/ and browse their “discrimination by type” pages under the “employees” and “employers” tabs. I’m not quite sure exactly what you’re getting at, but the EEOC doesn’t really use the word “bias” per se, they talk about discrimination on the basis of sex, age, disability, race, national origin, etc. The NY law uses the word ‘bias’ pretty much only in the phrase “bias audit”, which is defined in the law to mean a yearly audit of the software to make sure it is not discriminating as far as EEOC standards. The point is that there isn’t a new law about bias, and it’s not an ambiguous or undefined concept. It’s the existing equal employment opportunity laws, and all employers already know about them, and most (I hope) already adhere to them. I’m not suggesting it’s either complete or perfect, I’m just pointing out what the new NY law is referring to when it uses the words “bias audit”.
