Your HR AI Tools Are High-Risk Under EU Law. The Deadline Is 10 Weeks Away.
Published 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Description
On August 2, 2026, the EU AI Act's high-risk obligations kick in — and if your company uses AI to screen resumes, rank candidates, or evaluate employee performance, you're already in scope. That includes companies headquartered outside Europe. The law's extraterritorial reach is one of the most underestimated facts about this regulation.
In this episode, we break down exactly what the EU AI Act requires of HR teams, why the deadline is closer than most organizations realize, and the concrete steps you need to take in the next 10 weeks. We'll cover conformity assessments, vendor documentation, human oversight requirements, and why getting ahead of this is actually a competitive advantage — not just a compliance checkbox.
Whether you're in an HR leadership role, running a talent acquisition team, or making decisions about your organization's HR tech stack, this one's for you. Hit follow so you don't miss what's next.
