Responsible AI Principles

These Principles are guided by our purpose as a company, our core values, and our commitment to sustainable and responsible business conduct. These Principles apply to the purchase, development, implementation and usage of AI systems across the Adecco Group. As such, these Principles add to but do not replace existing policies on issues such as Information Security, Data Protection, Intellectual Property, and the Group Code of Conduct.

We aim to look beyond what is legally required with respect to the use and development of AI technologies and to base our analysis and decisions on what we believe to be ethical, inclusive and fair, whereby we actively seek input from diverse stakeholders. This reflects the Group’s values, most notably the value of “Inclusion” and “Customer at the Heart”. We aim to always act with integrity and accountability, and we demand the same from any third parties working with us.

We are active participants in discussions on AI in society, particularly in the context of the world of work, and we work closely with policymakers to support regulation that enables responsible use of AI.

Our end goal is to achieve a Responsible use and development of AI within the Adecco Group.

Responsible means that we adhere to 5 Principles:
