What This Agent Does

Job postings are one of the most visible HR outputs - and one of the most regulated. Anti-discrimination law governs language, the EU Pay Transparency Directive requires salary range disclosure, and each publishing channel has its own formatting requirements. Managing this across dozens of open positions, multiple languages, and numerous job boards creates significant manual effort and compliance risk. The Job Posting Agent transforms structured job requirement profiles into publication-ready postings. It applies the organisation's tone and format guidelines, checks language against anti-discrimination requirements, includes mandatory information (salary ranges, employment type, location), and distributes the posting to configured channels - job boards, career site, internal portals, and social platforms. The agent is classified as high-risk under the EU AI Act (Annex III, Section 4(a)) because targeted job advertisements can influence who applies and therefore affect the selection process. This means compliance checks, distribution monitoring, and full documentation are not optional. For organisations posting 100+ positions annually across multiple countries and channels, the consistency and compliance gains are substantial.

Governance Notes

EU AI Act III(4)(a): High Risk
Classified as high-risk under the EU AI Act, Annex III, Section 4(a) - targeted job advertisements are considered part of the recruitment process. Conformity assessment is mandatory. The agent must document its distribution logic to ensure postings are not targeted in a discriminatory manner. The EU Pay Transparency Directive (2023/970) creates specific obligations for salary information in job postings. Anti-discrimination law compliance must be verifiable per jurisdiction. Works council information rights apply under Article 26(7) EU AI Act. The Decision Layer decomposes every process into individual decision steps and defines for each: Human, Rules Engine, or AI Agent. Every decision is documented in a complete decision record. Affected employees can understand and challenge any automated decision.

Infrastructure Contribution

The Job Posting Agent builds the multi-channel publishing and compliance checking infrastructure that supports consistent external communications. The anti-discrimination language checking capability established here is reusable across all HR documents and communications. Builds Decision Logging and Audit Trail used by the Decision Layer for traceability and challengeability of every decision.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the agent write job postings from scratch?

The agent generates posting content from structured requirement profiles using templates and guidelines. A human always reviews and approves the content before publication.

How does the agent handle salary ranges for pay transparency?

The agent checks whether the applicable jurisdiction requires salary range disclosure and validates that the posting includes the required information. It does not determine salary ranges - those come from the compensation structure.
