Measure 31.2
Relevant Signatories that integrate fact-checks in their products or processes will ensure they employ swift and efficient mechanisms such as labelling, information panels, or policy enforcement to help increase the impact of fact-checks on audiences.
QRE 31.2.1
Relevant Signatories will report on their specific activities and initiatives related to Measures 31.1 and 31.2, including the full results and methodology applied in testing solutions to that end.
LinkedIn leverages its fact-checker to review user generated content that may violate its Professional Community Policies, which prohibit misinformation. Content that violates LinkedIn’s Professional Community Policies is removed from LinkedIn.
SLI 31.1.1 (for Measures 31.1 and 31.2)
Member State level reporting on use of fact-checks by service and the swift and efficient mechanisms in place to increase their impact, which may include (as depends on the service): number of fact-check articles published; reach of fact-check articles; number of content pieces reviewed by fact-checkers.
The figure for the number of content pieces reviewed by fact-checkers represents the number of pieces sent to our external fact checkers during the period 1 July – 31 December 2024. See also SLI 21.1.2.

SLI 31.1.2 (for Measures 31.1 and 31.2)
An estimation, through meaningful metrics, of the impact of actions taken such as, for instance, the number of pieces of content labelled on the basis of fact-check articles, or the impact of said measures on user interactions with information fact-checked as false or misleading.
Not applicable as LinkedIn removes, rather than labels, content that violates our policy on false and misleading content.

SLI 31.1.3 (for Measures 31.1 and 31.2)
Signatories recognise the importance of providing context to SLIs 31.1.1 and 31.1.2 in ways that empower researchers, fact-checkers, the Commission, ERGA, and the public to understand and assess the impact of the actions taken to comply with Commitment 31. To that end, relevant Signatories commit to include baseline quantitative information that will help contextualise these SLIs. Relevant Signatories will present and discuss within the Permanent Task-force the type of baseline quantitative information they consider using for contextualisation ahead of their baseline reports.
Not applicable.
