El Reglamento europeo sobre Inteligencia Artificial desde la perspectiva del Derecho del Trabajo italiano

This essay analyses EU Regulation 1689/2024 on Artificial Intelligence (AI) from the perspective of Italian labour law. The paper examines the framework of the Regulation based on the graduation of risks arising from AI, focusing firstly on prohibited systems (such as social scoring, emotion recognition and biometric categorisation of employees) and secondly on permitted high-risk systems. In relation to the latter, the study analyses what duties are imposed on providers and deployers –such as employers– and assesses these duties from a critical perspective. Special attention is paid to individual and collective information rights and human supervision obligations. In the final part, the author explores the connections between the European IA Regulation and the Italian legislation on workers' health and safety (Dlgs. 81/2008), highlighting the lack of innovative scope of the European Regulation from the point of view of the protection of this fundamental right of employees.
