The DPO Centre

How should HR teams respond when AI-generated content becomes part of a workplace dispute, without creating further problems?

Employees are increasingly using AI tools like ChatGPT to draft grievances, challenge redundancy decisions, and build arguments for employment claims. At the same time, HR teams are using AI themselves to review information, summarise documentation and support ever more complex cases, often involving sensitive employee data. Both can create legal and data protection risks, but the risks are not the same. 

In this session, experts from WorkNest People and the DPO Centre will discuss some of the main employment law and data protection challenges of AI-generated content, and how HR teams can handle disputes safely and appropriately. 

**You’ll learn:**

*   How AI is changing the volume and complexity of grievances, claims, and redundancy challenges 
*   How to respond to AI-generated arguments and false legal citations, while avoiding discrimination risks 
*   Where HR's own use of AI can create exposure, including what has to be disclosed if a case reaches tribunal 
*   What data protection risks arise when employees use AI to build a case, and HR teams use it to manage cases 
*   What checks and safeguards HR teams should have in place 

The session will close with an open Q\&A discussion, where you can ask experts from both WorkNest People and the DPO Centre about your own legal challenges with AI-generated workplace disputes and the associated data protection risks.
