On 2 February 2025 the first deadlines under the EU AI Act took effect. This included the AI literacy provisions, responsibility for which will likely be with HR teams and the ban on prohibited AI systems. What do these and other upcoming changes under the Act mean for in-scope employers?  

In this webinar, our multijurisdictional panel will share their insights on how the new legislation reshapes the existing legal landscape.

Together, they will provide practical tips and examples progressing from an overview of the key provisions of the Act for employers before taking a deeper dive into some more complex areas and finishing with a practical case study. Some of the areas covered include:

  • Applicability of the AI Act: exploring the scope of the new legislation including identifying prohibited and high risk AI practices in the HR sphere.
  • Key obligations of employers including addressing the requirements already in place, managing liability risks in AI-driven processes at the intersection of AI and the GDPR and anticipating the required standards of human oversight where this applies.
  • Employee representative involvement including the varying works council information, consultation and, in some cases, co determination rights across EU jurisdictions.

The webinar will take place on Tuesday, 27 May 2025 at 15:00 BST / 16:00 CEST and is scheduled to run for one hour. If you reside in a different time zone and wish to verify your time – please see timeanddate.com for the time in your location.
