The Long Beach Human Resources Committee met on September 23, 2026, to review employee handbook materials and a proposed employee AI-use policy. The committee discussed clarifying which forms and policies apply to new employees and how to distribute them; staff will coordinate revisions and bring the materials back for committee review. The AI policy was generally viewed as a useful starting point, but members raised questions about accuracy review, disclosure when AI is used, confidentiality, scope, and responsibility for cybersecurity safeguards. No policy was approved during the discussion.

Staff will consult the town attorney and the town’s cybersecurity and IT providers, including at a scheduled vendor meeting, for advice on simplifying and strengthening the draft. The committee also expects an update to be shared with the council. No contracts, purchases, bids, budget allocations, or other procurement actions were identified.
