Key insight: The EU AI Act classifies AI systems used in employment, worker management, and access to self-employment as "high risk" (Annex III, Category 4). This means any AI tool used for recruitment screening, performance evaluation, or promotion decisions requires a conformity assessment, human oversight provisions, and detailed technical documentation before deployment. Non-compliance can result in fines up to 35 million EUR or 7% of global annual turnover.
