Presenters:
Adrian founded hireful in 2005, ran his first workshop in 2009 and trains 1,000s of HR professionals and in-house recruiters every year. He loves nothing better than engaged in conversations, sharing insights and then repackaging these ideas as his own original creations.
His day-to-day role at hireful, sees him leading the product vision for their applicant tracking system (ATS). This provides him the time and scope to fulfil his passion for learning about all things AI. His personal mission is to help as many UK organisations as possible to become embrace AI and become “AI positive” employers.
Microsoft says 71% of workers have used unapproved AI tools at work (Source: IT Pro, Oct 2025).
Organisations urgently need clear, proportionate AI usage policies. Not just for employees, but also for candidates.
This webinar will walk you through how to draft your first practical AI usage policies, covering both employee use and candidate use. We will explore where the real risks sit, where organisations often overreact, and how to create policies that protect your organisation without damaging productivity, trust, or candidate experience.
Whilst we welcome attendance from technical teams and data protection officers, this session is designed specifically for HR leaders. Our aim is to strip away technical and legal jargon and give you the confidence to actively shape AI policy, rather than simply sign it off.
What this session will cover
- Understanding the AI reality
- How employees and candidates are already using AI in everyday work, job searching, applications and assessments. Where the genuine risks are, and where the fear is misplaced.
- Employee AI usage policy
- How to define acceptable and unacceptable use of AI at work, including drafting, research, decision-making, automation and data handling.
- Candidate AI usage policy
- How to set clear expectations around AI use in applications, CVs, assessments, interviews and tasks, without unfairly penalising candidates or undermining inclusion.
- Legal and ethical considerations
- Staying on the right side of GDPR, data protection, fairness and transparency when AI is used by both employees and applicants.
- Defining boundaries without killing productivity
- How to write policies that encourage responsible AI use rather than driving it underground.
- Training and communication
- Why AI policies fail without training, and how to equip employees and hiring managers to apply them consistently.
- Monitoring and enforcement
- How to balance being openly “AI positive” with enforcing standards. What ethical monitoring looks like, and where the red lines should be.
- Planning for what comes next
- How HR leaders can become AI-confident decision makers, capable of adapting policies as tools, behaviours and legislation evolve.
