Illinois AI in Employment (HB 3773) Regulatory Requirements

This annex gives the adopter a single per-regime view of Illinois's AI-in-employment law, House Bill 3773 (Public Act 103-0804), effective 1 January 2026. Unlike the comprehensive Texas and Colorado state AI statutes, HB 3773 is a targeted amendment to an existing civil-rights statute: it changes two sections of the Illinois Human Rights Act (IHRA), 775 ILCS 5, to make discriminatory employer use of artificial intelligence, the use of zip codes as a proxy for protected classes, and the failure to notify an employee of AI use each a "civil rights violation" under the IHRA employment article. Its nearest corpus sibling in subject is the New York City automated-employment-decision-tool annex (employment decisions), not the Colorado or Texas comprehensive-statute annexes. This annex frames the amendment's provisions and cross-references the operational substance rather than restating it; the controlling text is Public Act 103-0804 as codified in 775 ILCS 5.
