Artificial intelligence has moved from an innovation-led concept to a core driver of how organisations operate, compete and make decisions. Organisations embedding AI face an evolving matrix of legal, regulatory and governance obligations. Employees are often at the heart of AI or emerging technology implementation and so it is crucial to consider the applicable global employment laws at an early stage.
AI enabled workforce strategy and transformation can raise complex multi-jurisdictional compliance and operational challenges, from workforce engagement, data protection, cyber and surveillance and equality risk to transparency, accountability and human oversight requirements. Effective implementation therefore requires early assessment of the legalities of the particular AI tool or emerging technology being considered, compliance with employee and employee representative notice, consultation and/or consent requirements, governance through clear policies, lawful design choices and robust operational controls, ensuring that transformation is aligned with legal obligations and wider business strategy and culture.
Staying ahead of the evolving legal and regulatory landscape impacting the implementation and use of technology in the workplace is critical. Our global interactive hub brings together essential core knowledge and the latest insights, making it easier than ever to access guidance, practical resources and developments across multiple jurisdictions.
