Which required Federal postings does Title II of GINA impact?
The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) poster has been updated to include information regarding the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act. Employers are required to post notices explaining the Federal laws prohibiting job discrimination based on race, color, sex, national origin, religion, age, equal pay, disability and genetic information. The updates to the EEOC poster are considered mandatory. The Fair Labor Standards Act (minimum wage) Poster has also been updated as a result of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act. In accordance with GINA, civil money penalties for violation of minimum wage, overtime, and child labor provisions have been increased. The updated maximum penalties are included our 2009 Federal 6-in-1 poster. The updates to the FSLA poster are considered recommended.
