Abstract
The use of automated decision-making systems in public affairs has raised concerns about how to ensure the rights of individuals—should they be subject to such decision-making. To alleviate these concerns, various countries have begun regulating the use of this method within the framework of public management. This article is written using a descriptive-analytical approach and draws on library resources. The research findings indicate that most countries have responded to the expansion of automated decision-making by proposing and enacting laws related to data protection. A few countries have regulated automated decision-making within the framework of general administrative law by establishing new laws or amending existing ones. Some have taken a sectoral approach, applying this type of decision-making only to specific areas of public administration. Consequently, establishing a specific, special, and comprehensive regulatory framework to organize this method of decision-making is essential. Such a framework should clarify the situations in which it is used in public management, outline the governing principles for its implementation, and include appropriate guarantees to protect individuals' rights in the context of the right to good administration.
