Automated Decision-Making Systems and Discrimination
This guidebook offers an introduction to the risks of discrimination when using automated decision-making systems. This report also includes helpful definitions related to automation.
The guidebook discusses how automated decision-making (ADM) systems can cause discrimination in areas such as credit checks, online forms, facial recognition, job advertising, and insurance pricing.
It examines the sources of bias in ADM systems—including data, objectives, and models—and provides practical advice for anti-discrimination counseling to identify, address, and document discriminatory outcomes.
