New Non-Discrimination Law Takes Effect - Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act

On May 21, 2008, President George W. Bush signed The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) into law. This new law protects employees from discrimination on the basis of genetic information. GINA is scheduled to take effect on November 21, 2009.

Specifically, GINA prohibits employers from collecting genetic information from employees, and using this information to make decisions regarding hiring, firing, or any other term or condition of employment, GINA also requires employers, including labor unions and employment agencies to adhere to quidelines regarding genetics information and prohibits retaliation against an individual for opposing acts made lawful by GINA.

For more information about GINA, visit the U.S. Deparatment of Health & Human Services' web site.
