In February 2024, five papers were selected for presentation at the workshop. On the first day, these presentations included comparative analyses of existing legal frameworks, real-life implications on the social and ethical dimensions of hiring practices, and practical experiences of auditing new technologies. On the second day, the workshop aimed to explore how AI applications for HR practices can be made trustworthy, engaging presenters and the audience in an open debate. The discussions began with the Assessment List for Trustworthy AI (ALTAI) and participants shared insights from other jurisdictions and sectors.
