Executive Order 14042 Agency Class Deviation Guidance, A Side-by-Side Comparison
Client Alert | 1 min read | 10.08.21
Executive Order 14042, issued on September 9, 2021, requires that certain federal contractors and subcontractors mandate vaccinations against COVID-19 for covered employees in addition to requiring compliance by covered employees and visitors with other COVID-19 safety protocols.
However, E.O. 14042 leaves several questions unanswered, including how agencies should implement the order and, in some cases, what types of contracts are covered.

Crowell & Moring LLP is tracking this emerging guidance, and is pleased to present this table, current as of the date on the table.
