EX. ORD. NO. 11701. EMPLOYMENT OF VETERANS BY FEDERAL AGENCIES AND GOVERNMENT CONTRACTORS AND
SUBCONTRACTORS
Ex. Ord. No. 11701, Jan. 24, 1973, 38 F.R. 2675, provided:
On June 16, 1971, I issued Executive Order No. 11598 to
facilitate the employment of returning veterans by requiring Federal agencies and Federal contractors and
their subcontractors to list employment openings with
the employment service systems. Section 503 of the
Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act of
1972 (Public Law 92–540; 86 Stat. 1097) added a new section 2012 [now 4212] to Title 38 of the United States
Code which, in effect, provides statutory authority to
extend the program developed under that order with respect to Government contractors and their subcontractors.
NOW, THEREFORE, by virtue of the authority vested
in me by section 301 of Title 3 of the United States Code
and as President of the United States, it is hereby ordered as follows:
SECTION 1. The Secretary of Labor shall issue rules
and regulations requiring each department and agency
of the executive branch of the Federal Government to
list suitable employment openings with the appropriate
office of the State Employment Service or the United
States Employment Service. This section shall not be
construed as requiring the employment of individuals
referred by such office or as superseding any requirements of the Civil Service Laws. Rules, regulations,
and orders to implement this section shall be developed
in consultation with the Civil Service Commission.
SEC. 2. The Secretary of Labor is hereby designated
and empowered to exercise, without the approval, ratification, or other action of the President, the authority
of the President under Section 2012 [now 4212] of Title
