DOL issues FAQ about GINA

The U.S. Department of Labor has issued Frequently Asked Questions about the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (“GINA”).  The FAQs pertain to Title I of GINA, which applies mainly to  insurers and not to the employment law aspects of GINA.  However, these FAQs are instructive with respect to how the federal government interprets GINA, especially with respect to defining what it considers “genetic information.”
