Analysis of the AI Act restrictions and limitations on employment
Zusammenfassung
The new technology, now known as artificial intelligence, has swept across many fields and industries. It is also widely used in the world of work, where it offers many advantages for companies, but at the same time causes legal and ethical harm in the form of non-transparent decision-making, discrimination, interference with our rights to privacy, freedom, dignity, civil rights, justice, equality, economic, social and cultural rights and the right to privacy. The REGULATION (EU) 2024/1689 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL (Artificial Intelligence Act) is the first legal instrument to regulate these systems, creating safe, reliably efficient innovation for businesses and their subjects. The hypothesis of this thesis is whether restrictions and limitations from the AI Act to AI systems used in the workplace will not adversely affect workplace innovation and will preserve the EU's fundamental rights framework. In order to make conclusions, it was decided to examine AI AI Act, high-risk AI systems, reflection of the AI Act in GDPR, Charter, Brussels Effect, application of AI systems in workplace, AI in recruitment, AI in performance monitoring and evaluation and AI in workforce management, AI in promotion and termination decisions, analysis of contemporary business practices and impact of the AI Liability Directive.
