Date

In this episode of the Matheson Employment Law Podcast Series, Bryan Dunne, Head of Employment, is joined by partner Alice Duffy to examine the growing trend of employees using generative AI tools to draft workplace grievances, disciplinary responses and appeal submissions. The discussion explores the practical impact this is having on employers, recent WRC and Irish High Court decisions involving AI generated legal submissions, and the WRC’s new guidance on the responsible use of AI. 

Bryan and Alice also outline practical steps for employers in managing AI generated complaints, the risks for employers deploying AI within HR processes, and the implications of the EU AI Act for workplace decision making.
