Abstract
(SB1077 · 103rd Legislature) Labor: fair employment practices; use of electronic monitoring or automated decisions tools by an employer; prohibit except for certain purposes. Creates new act. Latest action (2026-06-24): Referred To Committee On Labor
Why this matters
If enacted, SB 1077 would be Michigan’s first statutory limit on employer use of workplace surveillance technology and algorithmic hiring, discipline, and management tools, changing what employers may deploy and giving workers new protections. It signals a broader legislative interest in constraining automated decision-making across labor and consumer domains.
