What Kimi does in occupational health & absence management

Core tasks in occupational health & absence management
Where Kimi excels
  • Flagship K3 (2.8T parameters, 1M context) and open-weight K2.6 are self-hostable
  • Multimodal: text, image and video in one architecture
  • Strong in agent work and deep research
  • Affordable API with substantial cache discounts

Kimi raises a concrete GDPR concern. The parent company is based in Beijing and falls under Chinese security legislation; the privacy policy does not explicitly mention that jurisdiction. Do not put confidential data into the consumer app; self-hosting the open weights is the safe route. Weigh this heavily before deploying it in occupational health & absence management.

Confidentiality and GDPR

GDPR: Caution

Occupational health and absence data are health data and fall under medical confidentiality. The employer must not see a diagnosis, not even through an AI summary: keep medical and non-medical information strictly separated. Never use a free chatbot for consultations or case files. Sign a data processing agreement (DPA), require processing within the EU, no training on your data, and NEN 7510/ISO 27001, and ask which language models and sub-processors sit behind the service. Ask the employee for consent before any recording. Do not let AI independently assess an individual employee's fitness for work or absence risk: AI systems that influence decisions about employees can be high-risk under the EU AI Act. Check every report before it goes into the file.

The international service is provided by Moonshot AI Pte. Ltd. (Singapore); according to the privacy policy, data is stored on servers in Singapore and content may be used to improve the service. The K2 models are open-weight and can be self-hosted.

Rule of thumb Use the business variant with a data processing agreement, and keep a human in the loop for decisions that matter.
