Why an ad hoc directive on AI in employment is required %U https://www.etui.org/publications/ai-regulation-entering-ai-regulatory-winter %X AI systems in the context of employment are intrusive and have negative impacts on workers. The proposed Regulation fails to address the specificity of AI uses in employment, including platform work. An ad hoc directive on AI in employment is therefore necessary. As a consequence of focusing the regulatory approach on high-risk applications, the majority of use cases are considered low-risk, not subject to any evaluation and de facto authorised. High-risk uses are permitted subject to compliance with specific requirements and an ex ante conformity assessment based on internal control checks. This approach stacks the deck in favour of tech providers when the priority of this Regulation should have been to protect EU citizens and workers’ rights.
