Using AI in the Workplace - Key Considerations for HR Professionals

Introduction

From shift allocation and facial recognition to automated video interviews and CV sifting, artificial intelligence tools are currently in use in many workplaces.

In many cases, they are being used and impacting on people within an organisation without any involvement or awareness of HR teams. While AI offers significant opportunities to deliver competitive advantage, its use can also pose significant risks if it is not used wisely.

The Equality and Human Rights Commission has identified tackling discrimination in AI as a key priority in its next 3-year strategy and there are plans to introduce an AI Act in the UK.

HR teams will play a pivotal role in ensuring that businesses not only comply with their obligations, but crucially can also develop AI to complement and enhance what its people can do.
