This Act prohibits discrimination based on genetic testing and results in most circumstances, while also amending related federal labour and human rights laws.
Bill S-201, the Genetic Non-Discrimination Act, makes it illegal for most people to require an individual to undergo or disclose the results of a genetic test as a condition of receiving goods or services, entering into contracts, or continuing existing agreements. It also protects employees from being forced to take genetic tests or disclose their results by their employers, and prohibits employers from taking disciplinary action based on an employee's genetic test results. Exceptions are made for healthcare practitioners providing services and for researchers conducting studies, provided the individuals are research participants. The Act also amends the Canada Labour Code and the Canadian Human Rights Act to include protections related to genetic testing and genetic characteristics.
