The Board of Education does not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment with respect to hiring, compensation, terms, conditions, or privileges of employment based on genetic information. The Board also does not limit, segregate, or classify employees in any way that would deprive or tend to deprive them of employment opportunities or otherwise adversely affect the status of an employee as an employee, based on genetic information. Retaliation against an applicant or employee for engaging in protected activity is prohibited.

The Board shall only acquire and/or disclose genetic information of an employee or applicant for employment as provided by Federal law and regulation.

The Superintendent shall appoint a compliance officer whose responsibility it will be to ensure that Federal regulations are complied with and that any inquires or complaints are dealt with promptly in accordance with law. S/He shall also ensure that proper notice of nondiscrimination for Title II of the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 is provided to staff members.
