ADMT opt-out rules for staffing agencies

What the ADMT regulations cover

The CPPA's approved regulations address businesses' use of automated decisionmaking technology to make significant decisions about consumers — which includes employment decisions such as hiring, allocation of work, and compensation. They require a pre-use notice, a way for consumers to opt out (subject to listed exceptions), and access to information about the ADMT's use.

Where staffing agencies are exposed

Most agencies didn't build these tools — they switched them on inside software they already use.

• Resume-screening or candidate-ranking features inside your applicant tracking system.
• Video-interview tools that score responses.
• Job-board integrations that auto-reject candidates based on scoring.
• No pre-use notice shown to candidates before the tool is used.

Preparing before the deadline

Start with an inventory of every tool that scores or filters candidates, then draft the pre-use notice and decide how candidates will submit opt-out requests. Everproof Pro hosts the notice and a two-channel opt-out, and keeps the risk-assessment documentation file current. Have counsel review the final language for your workflows.
