Criticality criteria for utilities

• ensure the functioning of transport infrastructure (rail, sea or inland waterway transport);

• participate in the implementation of state programs on energy efficiency or the restoration of destroyed buildings;
• provide services for the management or maintenance of apartment buildings;

Separate criteria are provided for enterprises operating in the field of postal services, conducting mandatory technical control of vehicles, engaged in architectural or engineering activities, and also performing scientific and technical developments in the field of construction.

It is important that for enterprises in these industries it is enough to meet at least one of the specified criteria to be recognized as critical.

It is also worth considering restrictions on the reservation of employees. For the companies listed above, the number of military personnel who can be reserved cannot exceed 75% of the total number.

Procedure for obtaining the status of a critical enterprise for utility workers

1. Analysis of compliance with the criteria. At the first stage, the enterprise's activities are assessed for compliance with the established requirements and possible grounds for obtaining such status are determined.
2. Preparation of documents. A complete package of documents is formed, confirming the compliance of the enterprise with the established requirements.
3. Submission of an application. The prepared package is submitted to the relevant body - the regional military administration or the relevant ministry, depending on the field of activity.
4. Consideration of the application. The authorized body checks the submitted materials and assesses the enterprise's compliance with the criticality criteria within ten days.
5. Decision-making. Based on the results of the review, a decision is made to grant the enterprise the status of critical or to refuse to assign it.

How to get into the Register of Critical Infrastructure Facilities?

First, a preliminary analysis of the enterprise's activities is carried out - its role in providing important services, the consequences of stopping work and possible risks are analyzed.

Next, the industry state body submits a proposal for inclusion in the list of critical infrastructure and prepares a notification for entering data into the Register. Such notification must be submitted within one month of the facility being included in the sectoral list.

After that, the authorized body checks the submitted data and makes a decision on inclusion in the Register or returns the documents for revision.

In the event of a positive decision, the enterprise officially acquires the status of a critical infrastructure facility and receives a category of importance.
