Omdat we AI gebruiken als onderdeel van ons wervingsproces, willen we op dit punt graag transparantie en duidelijkheid creëren. Onze AI richt zich uitsluitend op functietitels en vaardigheden die de functie vereist en die mensen bezitten. Wij vinden het belangrijk om te vermelden dat sollicitanten geen nadelen of discriminatie ervaren, omdat wij geen gegevens hebben betreffende geslacht, leeftijd, afkomst of religie en de AI zal daar ook geen conclusies over trekken. De AI dient uitsluitend als ondersteunend en adviserend instrument om onze processen nog sneller en efficiënter te maken. Er worden nooit geautomatiseerde besluiten genomen.
