Athens, 06/03/2025 – Quest Global has partnered with code4thought to conduct an independent Bias Testing Audit of an Automated Employment Decision Tool (AEDT) under New York City’s Bias Law (Local Law 144) using code4thought’s NYC AI Bias Audit service.
Quest Global is one of the world’s leading engineering research and development (ER&D) services companies. As a global organization with presence in 20 countries, 85 delivery centers and a team of 20,000+ people, Quest Global solves the most critical and large-scale challenges across the Aerospace & Defense, Automotive, Energy, Hi-tech, Med-tech & Healthcare, Rail, and Semiconductor industries by leveraging over 25 years of experience and expertise.
With AI-driven hiring systems becoming increasingly prevalent, regulatory scrutiny is intensifying. Ensuring compliance is not just a legal requirement—it’s a fundamental step toward building reliable, transparent, and equitable AI systems.
Through this collaboration, code4thought will:
- Assess the performance and accuracy of the AEDT to ensure data-driven, reliable hiring decisions
- Conduct bias testing to identify and mitigate unintended discrimination
- Provide practical recommendations to address detected biases and enhance fairness
Beyond NYC: A Global AI Governance Shift
While driven by NYC’s Local Law 144, this initiative reflects broader AI governance trends in the EU and UK, where transparency, accountability, and fairness are rapidly becoming essential compliance pillars.
“At code4thought, we see AI compliance as more than just regulatory adherence—it’s an opportunity for organizations to build trustworthy and high-performing AI systems that deliver business value,” said Yiannis Kanellopoulos, CEO & Founder of code4thought. “We are excited to work with Quest Global in ensuring their AI-driven hiring system meets both legal and operational standards while setting a benchmark for responsible AI adoption.”
