Abstract

This article examines the various scientific, legal, and ethical issues involved in genetic testing at the workplace. On the basis of this examination, the adequacy of current policies to deal with the unanticipated issues related to genetic screening is assessed. Finally, certain public policy options to narrow the hitherto widening gap between and among science, law, and ethics are suggested.
