Llama isn't on our list for staffing & temp work. It's usable for general work, but first look at the options we recommend for staffing & temp work.

Llama has a specific GDPR concern. The Llama 4 Acceptable Use Policy prohibits the multimodal models for businesses headquartered in the EU. Dutch businesses therefore may not themselves install the multimodal Llama 4 models under the licence. Weigh this heavily before deploying it in staffing & temp work.
Confidentiality and GDPR
GDPR: CautionCandidate profiles, job applications and assessments are personal data under the GDPR. Automated matching and selection fall under the AI Act (high risk for decisions about access to work): be transparent and keep a human in the loop. Never send CAO-sensitive payroll or BSN (citizen service number) data to a consumer version of a chatbot. Check whether AI matching models introduce unintended discrimination (age, origin, gender) and record audits.
Self-hosting gives full data control within your own EU infrastructure, a strong GDPR argument.
