Corrective Action, the steps a provider or deployer takes to bring a non-compliant or malfunctioning AI system back into conformity, or to withdraw it from the market.
Under the EU AI Act, providers who consider that a high-risk AI system they have placed on the market is not in conformity must immediately take corrective action, bringing it into compliance, withdrawing it, disabling it, or recalling it, and inform distributors, deployers, and authorities. Corrective-action obligations mirror product-safety recall regimes. A documented corrective-action process is a core part of post-market monitoring.
