What EU AI Act - High-Risk AI in Employment, Workers Management, and Recruitment (Annex III Point 4) requires
EU AI Act (Regulation 2024/1689) Annex III Point 4 designates as high-risk all AI systems used in employment, workers management, and access to self-employment, covering four categories: (4a) AI for targeted advertising for job vacancies, or recruitment or selection of natural persons - in particular for posting targeted job advertisements, screening or filtering applications, and evaluating candidates during interviews or tests; (4b) AI for making decisions affecting terms of work, working conditions, promotion, or termination - in particular where these decisions affect performance monitoring, performance evaluation, and task allocation with behavioural impact; (4c) AI for monitoring and evaluating employee performance; (4d) AI for worker profiling to determine access to benefits or services; the high-risk designation triggers the full Chapter III compliance regime including Article 9 risk management, Article 10 data governance, Article 11 technical documentation, Article 13 transparency, Article 14 human oversight, Article 17 QMS, Article 27 FRIA for large employers or public bodies; importantly, Article 27(1) requires deployers using high-risk employment AI systems who are public bodies or private organisations employing more than 250 employees to conduct a Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment before putting the system into use.
