What Every Employer Should Know About AI Governance Before the EU AI Act Deadline

As organizations increasingly incorporate AI into recruiting, workforce planning, employee monitoring, and performance management, the legal risks extend beyond privacy and employment law. You may find thought leadership from our colleagues regarding the EU AI Act useful. In their recent Westlaw Today article, Yana Komsitsky, Paul Whinder, and Georgia Hill Smith examine what types of workplace AI tools are likely to be classified as high-risk under the EU AI Act and the governance structures organizations should be building to prepare for compliance, alongside existing laws governing automated processing, including GDPR and others coming online across the US and elsewhere.

Every additional 10 years of brain aging raised that risk by nearly 40%.
