Abstract

The EU AI Act (Art. 27) requires deployers of high-risk AI systems to conduct Fundamental Rights Impact Assessments (FRIAs) before deployment, yet the evidence needed for credible assessments is fragmented across incompatible incident repositories, risk vocabularies, and legal texts. We present a reusable Semantic Web-based framework that consolidates this evidence for two high-risk public sector categories: employment and worker management (Annex III(4)) and access to essential public services (Annex III(5)(a)). A curated 150-record corpus is annotated along four axes using keyword, LLM, and hybrid methods and serialised as a SPARQL-queryable knowledge graph of 1,351 RDF triples. Five FRIA demonstration scenarios surface 103 records (68.7% coverage). Evaluation against a 69-record gold standard reveals that LLM-assisted classification of the employment domain achieves only $\kappa = 0.045$, a cautionary result for automated fairness-related evidence retrieval in this domain. All artefacts are released openly to support adoption by regulators, national authorities, and SMEs.

Gender, Race, and Intersectional Bias in Resume Screening via Language Model Retrieval

This work investigates the possibilities of using LLMs in a resume screening setting via a document retrieval framework that simulates job candidate selection and finds that the MTEs are biased, significantly favoring White-associated names in 85% of cases and female-associated names in only 11.1% of cases.
