Automated Employment Decision Tool (AEDT) Use Notice

National Grid uses tools to assess a candidate’s overall application relative to the required job specifications in our live postings.  As an applicant to any National Grid job posting, you have the opportunity during the application process to either opt-in or opt-out of having your application being assessed by this AI screening tool.

In compliance with New York City Local Law 144, National Grid is making available the latest results of the bias audits conducted on these potential AEDTs utilized during the initial application process.  The information is found using the links here for HiredScore.

If you have opted-in to the use of potential AEDTs utilized during the initial application process and would like to know more about how this tool has reached its outcome, relevant to your application, please do get in touch with us at HR.Compliance@nationalgrid.com.

When you apply for a role at National Grid, you may also be asked to complete an assessment that utilizes AI- or statistically based scoring.
