Attorney Catherine N. Summa to Moderate Webinar on “AI at Work: Boundaries, Pitfalls, and Practical Strategies for Employment Counsel”
On November 16, 2026, Attorney Catherine N. Summa will moderate the webinar entitled “AI at Work: Boundaries, Pitfalls, and Practical Strategies for Employment Counsel” sponsored by the Connecticut Bar Association.
Employers are using AI to recruit, hire, evaluate, and manage employees, and the law is racing to catch up. New state and local laws require bias audits, notices, and risk assessments, while plaintiffs are bringing discrimination claims against both employers and AI vendors. This program gives employment counsel a practical framework for advising clients on the current rules, managing AI vendors, and building compliance programs that reduce litigation risk.
This webinar is CLE pass eligible and designed for attorneys, legal professionals, and law students interested in learning more about the impact of artificial intelligence on labor and employment law.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- How to identify common workplace uses of AI and where legal risk arises
- The key requirements of new state AI employment laws
- How to evaluate AI bias claims under federal and state anti-discrimination laws
- How to recognize privacy and data concerns raised by AI tools
- How to address employee use of AI at work and in job searches
- How to develop or challenge AI policies and safeguards
