Massachusetts General Laws c.149 S19B requires that the following
statement be included on employment applications:“It is unlawful in
Massachusetts to require or administer a lie detector test as a
condition of employment. An employer who violates this law shall be
subject to criminal penalties and civil liability.”
Massachusetts General Laws c. 151B defines “genetic information” as any
written record or explanation of a genetic test of a person’s family
history with regard to the presence, absence or variation of a gene. A
genetic test is broadly defined as “any test of DNA, RNA, mitochondrial
DNA, chromosome or proteins for the purpose of identifying genes or
genetic abnormalities.” The law expressly excludes drug and alcohol
tests from this definition, meaning that employers may continue to
conduct such tests in accordance with existing legal requirements.
These new statutory provisions specifically prohibit employers from (1)
terminating or refusing to hire individuals on the basis of genetic
information; (2) requesting genetic information concerning employees,
applicants or their family members; (3) attempting to induce individuals
to undergo genetic tests or otherwise disclose genetic information; (4)
using genetic information in any way that affects the terms and
conditions of an individual’s employment; or (5) seeking, receiving or
maintaining genetic information for any non-medical purpose.
