Dignity and AI in Employment and Labor
HR technology (HR Tech) using artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely implemented in recruitment and personnel management. Although its usefulness is recognized in human resource development and worker safety, AI-based recruitment and personnel evaluation have raised issues in terms of privacy, equality, and fairness, and the EU AI law and other regulations require strict governance as a “high-risk” area.
In this subunit, we would like to examine what dignity means in employment and labor from a cross-disciplinary perspective, and thereafter make recommendations on HR Tech and the handling of personal data, as well as on issues such as “AI unemployment,” while referring to the legal systems of various countries.
