Federal law requires postings in workplaces informing individuals of their rights under federal employment discrimination laws. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has published a notice revising its “Equal Employment Opportunity is the Law” poster to reflect changes required by the employment provisions (Title II) of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (GINA), which become effective on November 21, 2009. The new poster can be found at http://www1.eeoc.gov/employers/poster.cfm. According to the EEOC, the poster will be available in Spanish, Chinese and Arabic before GINA becomes effective on November 21, 2009. Employers may want to update handbook policies to incorporate language concerning GINA, consistent with the new posting requirement. If you need assistance, please contact a member of our Disability, Leave and Health Management practice group.
