Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA) Disclosures Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008
The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (“GINA”) protects employees against discrimination based on their
genetic information. Unless otherwise permitted, your Employer may not request or require any genetic information from you
or your family members.
The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA) prohibits employers and other entities covered by GINA Title II
from requesting or requiring genetic information of an individual or family member of the individual, except as specifically
allowed by this law. To comply with this law, we are asking that you not provide any genetic information when responding to
this request for medical information. “Genetic information,” as defined by GINA, includes an individual’s family medical hist ory,
the results of an individual’s or family member’s genetic tests, the fact that an individual or an individual’s family member
sought or received genetic services, and genetic information of a fetus carried by an individual or an individual’s family
member or an embryo lawfully held by an individual or family member receiving assistive reproductive services.
