- danarmak 4y agoHow can the employer prove a negative? At most I imagine the plaintiff is allowed to do discovery, and then has to prove positive discrimination based on that.

- vajrabum 4y agoIf you read the document again (?) maybe you'll see it's not about proving a negative. Instead, it's a standard of due care. Did you check whether using some particular tool illegally discriminates and document that consideration? From the document itself: "Clarifies that, when designing or choosing technological tools, employers must consider how their tools could impact different disabilities; Explains employers’ obligations under the ADA when using algorithmic decision-making tools, including when an employer must provide a reasonable accommodation;"

- rascul 4y ago> I am not sure, but if I remember correctly employer must prove they are not discriminating. That seems backwards, at least in the US.
