GINA or Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008, is an act that prohibits genetic information as a basis for discrimination in employment. Genetic tests are not a reason for employment. The act protects people who felt they are harassed or fired due to this case. Also, it requires confidentiality to employers who have this kind of records.
