Starting August 2, 2025, the European Union's AI Act introduces significant obligations for Human Resources departments. Companies must ensure human oversight of AI systems, maintain a risk-relevant event log for at least six months, train employees handling these systems, and inform staff about AI usage affecting them.

Non-compliance can result in fines up to €35 million or 7% of global annual revenue. While SMEs and startups may receive leniency, all organizations utilizing AI are required to adapt to these new regulations.
