What this object links to

Every relation appears below as a path: from the source with its locator, through the conditions and exceptions of the object carrying the relation, to the consequence. A locator belongs to a statement in the data and not to a relation, so the source is the source anchor of the carrying object.

What this object states

Official fact

Attributable to a named primary source, with a locator. Where they differ, the official source prevails.

  • Employment, workers’ management and access to self-employment: (a) AI systems intended to be used for the recruitment or selection of natural persons, in particular to place targeted job advertisements, to analyse and filter job applications, and to evaluate candidates; (b) AI systems intended to be used to make decisions affecting terms of work-related relationships, the promotion or termination of work-related contractual relationships, to allocate tasks based on individual behaviour or personal traits or characteristics or to monitor and evaluate the performance and behaviour of persons in such relationships.

  • The core rules of Chapter III, Sections 1 to 3, apply from 2 December 2027 to systems classified as high-risk pursuant to Article 6(2) and Annex III. That date follows from Article 113 as amended by Regulation (EU) 2026/1744.

Our interpretation

Our own reading. It can change without the law changing, and it is not the position of a supervisory authority.

  • The area touching almost every employer, and where the line between administrative help and evaluating people is crossed fastest without anyone noticing. An employer that is a body governed by public law or provides public services also reaches Article 27 here.

When this applies

No condition recorded on this object.

When this does not apply

No exception recorded on this object.
