Artikkel 26 — plikter for brukere av høyrisiko-KI

Sist verifisert 2026-09-29Gjelder i EU fra 2027-12-02Kilder nederst

Artikkel 26 gir plikter til den som bruker et system som er klassifisert som høyrisiko: blant annet å følge bruksanvisningen, sørge for menneskelig tilsyn, overvåke bruken, oppbevare relevante logger og informere ansatte og tillitsvalgte i angitte tilfeller. Et bruksområde i vedlegg III må vurderes etter artikkel 6, inkludert artikkel 6(3), før artikkel 26 legges til grunn. De utsatte EU-datoene og forordningens territorielle virkeområde må også kontrolleres.

1.Deployers of high-risk AI systems shall take appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure they use such systems in accordance with the instructions for use accompanying the systems, pursuant to paragraphs 3 and 6.

2.Deployers shall assign human oversight to natural persons who have the necessary competence, training and authority, as well as the necessary support.

3.The obligations set out in paragraphs 1 and 2, are without prejudice to other deployer obligations under Union or national law and to the deployer’s freedom to organise its own resources and activities for the purpose of implementing the human oversight measures indicated by the provider.

4.Without prejudice to paragraphs 1 and 2, to the extent the deployer exercises control over the input data, that deployer shall ensure that input data is relevant and sufficiently representative in view of the intended purpose of the high-risk AI system.

5.Deployers shall monitor the operation of the high-risk AI system on the basis of the instructions for use and, where relevant, inform providers in accordance with Article 72. Where deployers have reason to consider that the use of the high-risk AI system in accordance with the instructions may result in that AI system presenting a risk within the meaning of Article 79(1), they shall, without undue delay, inform the provider or distributor and the relevant market surveillance authority, and shall suspend the use of that system. Where deployers have identified a serious incident, they shall also immediately inform first the provider, and then the importer or distributor and the relevant market surveillance authorities of that incident. If the deployer is not able to reach the provider, Article 73 shall apply mutatis mutandis. This obligation shall not cover sensitive operational data of deployers of AI systems which are law enforcement authorities.

For deployers that are financial institutions subject to requirements regarding their internal governance, arrangements or processes under Union financial services law, the monitoring obligation set out in the first subparagraph shall be deemed to be fulfilled by complying with the rules on internal governance arrangements, processes and mechanisms pursuant to the relevant financial service law.

6.Deployers of high-risk AI systems shall keep the logs automatically generated by that high-risk AI system to the extent such logs are under their control, for a period appropriate to the intended purpose of the high-risk AI system, of at least six months, unless provided otherwise in applicable Union or national law, in particular in Union law on the protection of personal data.

Deployers that are financial institutions subject to requirements regarding their internal governance, arrangements or processes under Union financial services law shall maintain the logs as part of the documentation kept pursuant to the relevant Union financial service law.

7.Before putting into service or using a high-risk AI system at the workplace, deployers who are employers shall inform workers’ representatives and the affected workers that they will be subject to the use of the high-risk AI system. This information shall be provided, where applicable, in accordance with the rules and procedures laid down in Union and national law and practice on information of workers and their representatives.

8.Deployers of high-risk AI systems that are public authorities, or Union institutions, bodies, offices or agencies shall comply with the registration obligations referred to in Article 49. When such deployers find that the high-risk AI system that they envisage using has not been registered in the EU database referred to in Article 71, they shall not use that system and shall inform the provider or the distributor.

9.Where applicable, deployers of high-risk AI systems shall use the information provided under Article 13 of this Regulation to comply with their obligation to carry out a data protection impact assessment under Article 35 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 or Article 27 of Directive (EU) 2016/680.

10.Without prejudice to Directive (EU) 2016/680, in the framework of an investigation for the targeted search of a person suspected or convicted of having committed a criminal offence, the deployer of a high-risk AI system for post-remote biometric identification shall request an authorisation, ex ante, or without undue delay and no later than 48 hours, by a judicial authority or an administrative authority whose decision is binding and subject to judicial review, for the use of that system, except when it is used for the initial identification of a potential suspect based on objective and verifiable facts directly linked to the offence. Each use shall be limited to what is strictly necessary for the investigation of a specific criminal offence.

If the authorisation requested pursuant to the first subparagraph is rejected, the use of the post-remote biometric identification system linked to that requested authorisation shall be stopped with immediate effect and the personal data linked to the use of the high-risk AI system for which the authorisation was requested shall be deleted.

In no case shall such high-risk AI system for post-remote biometric identification be used for law enforcement purposes in an untargeted way, without any link to a criminal offence, a criminal proceeding, a genuine and present or genuine and foreseeable threat of a criminal offence, or the search for a specific missing person. It shall be ensured that no decision that produces an adverse legal effect on a person may be taken by the law enforcement authorities based solely on the output of such post-remote biometric identification systems.

This paragraph is without prejudice to Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 10 of Directive (EU) 2016/680 for the processing of biometric data.

Regardless of the purpose or deployer, each use of such high-risk AI systems shall be documented in the relevant police file and shall be made available to the relevant market surveillance authority and the national data protection authority upon request, excluding the disclosure of sensitive operational data related to law enforcement. This subparagraph shall be without prejudice to the powers conferred by Directive (EU) 2016/680 on supervisory authorities.

Deployers shall submit annual reports to the relevant market surveillance and national data protection authorities on their use of post-remote biometric identification systems, excluding the disclosure of sensitive operational data related to law enforcement. The reports may be aggregated to cover more than one deployment.

Member States may introduce, in accordance with Union law, more restrictive laws on the use of post-remote biometric identification systems.

11.Without prejudice to Article 50 of this Regulation, deployers of high-risk AI systems referred to in Annex III that make decisions or assist in making decisions related to natural persons shall inform the natural persons that they are subject to the use of the high-risk AI system. For high-risk AI systems used for law enforcement purposes Article 13 of Directive (EU) 2016/680 shall apply.

12.Deployers shall cooperate with the relevant competent authorities in any action those authorities take in relation to the high-risk AI system in order to implement this Regulation.

Sammendrag — ikke offisiell oversettelse

Den som bruker et høyrisiko-KI-system skal bruke det etter leverandørens bruksanvisning, gi menneskelig tilsyn til personer med nødvendig kompetanse og myndighet, sørge for at inndata er relevante og representative der brukeren styrer dem, overvåke bruken og oppbevare logger i minst seks måneder.

Arbeidsgivere skal informere tillitsvalgte og berørte ansatte før et høyrisiko-KI-system tas i bruk på arbeidsplassen (26(7)). Personer som utsettes for avgjørelser fra systemet skal informeres (26(11)), og brukeren skal samarbeide med myndighetene (26(12)).

Konsekvensvurderingen for grunnleggende rettigheter i artikkel 27 gjelder bare offentlige organer, private som yter offentlige tjenester, og brukere innen kreditt og forsikring — ikke vanlige private arbeidsgivere.

Hva betyr dette for en norsk bedrift

Kan treffe KI i HR. Siling, rangering eller vurdering av søkere og enkelte beslutninger om ansatte står i vedlegg III punkt 4. Endelig klassifisering krever vurdering etter artikkel 6(2) og 6(3); et vedlegg III-system som profilerer fysiske personer, er alltid høyrisiko. Artikkel 26 gjelder først når systemet er klassifisert som høyrisiko og de øvrige vilkårene er oppfylt.

I EU: fra 2. desember 2027. Digital Omnibus (EU) 2026/1744 utsatte fristen fra 2. august 2026.

I Norge: KI-loven er ikke vedtatt, forordningen er ikke innlemmet i EØS-avtalen og ikrafttredelsesdato er ikke fastsatt. Direkte EU-anvendelse kan følge av artikkel 2, men må vurderes konkret ut fra rolle, markedsplassering og hvor systemresultater brukes.

Uansett, nå: arbeidsmiljøloven § 9-2 krever allerede drøfting med tillitsvalgte og informasjon til ansatte før kontrolltiltak, og GDPR artikkel 35 krever DPIA ved høy risiko. Plikten i 26(7) bygger videre på dette.
