In this article published in <strong>Werf&amp;<\/strong>, Rewire partner Laura Brandwacht argues that AI does not remove human responsibility in recruitment, it scales it. As a California federal judge has again refused to toss most of the discrimination claims against Workday, she explains that models learn from historical data and can infer sensitive characteristics through proxies such as education or postcode, even without explicit variables like gender or ethnicity. Fairness, she says, is ultimately a leadership choice rather than a technical one, and responsible use depends on continuous monitoring rather than a one-off compliance check. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.werf-en.nl\/over-de-workday-zaak-maakt-a-i-recruitment-eerlijker-of-versterkt-het-juist-bias\/\">Read the full article in Werf&amp;
