List of Substantially Affected Organizations

The list of Substantially Affected Organizations (SAOs) provides a resource for employees to identify which companies are considered "substantially affected organizations" and thus assist them in complying with DHHS regulations. The list was produced using the North American Industrial Classification System (NAICS) codes*.

This list is NOT ALL-INCLUSIVE and serves only as a guide. In addition, it does not contain companies that fall outside of the NAICS jurisdiction, such as those based outside North America. For assistance in researching whether a particular company should belong to this list, please contact your Deputy Ethics Counselor.

To determine if a particular company is on the list of substantially affected organizations, use the search function below. To improve search results, type the company's full name.
