In 2008, the federal government began regulating genetic testing in employment to prevent genetic discrimination. The Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA) makes it illegal to discriminate against employees or job applicants on the basis of genetic information. Genetic information includes information about an individual's genetic tests and the genetic tests of an individual's family members, as well as an individual's family medical history. Title II of GINA prohibits the use of genetic information in making employment decisions, restricts employers from requesting, requiring, or purchasing genetic information, and strictly limits the disclosure of genetic information. While an employer may access genetic information under a few, extremely limited exceptions under GINA (see Exhibit 4.16), an employer may never use genetic information to make an employment decision because genetic information is not seen as relevant to an individual's current ability to work.
