Deadline Passed: New EEOC poster must be posted as of November 21, 2009
On May 21, 2008, Former President George W. Bush signed the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA)
of 2008 into law. GINA includes two distinct titles. Title I addresses the use of genetic information in health insurance.
Title II of GINA prohibits employers from collecting genetic information from employees, and using this information to make
decisions regarding employment.
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) poster has been updated to include information regarding the Genetic Information
Nondiscrimination Act.
Employers are required to post notices explaining the Federal laws prohibiting job discrimination based on race,
color, sex, national origin, religion, age, equal pay, disability and genetic information.
