Business Continuity Management System Policy

In order to establish a Business Continuity Management System, our Policy focused on adhering to the following principles:

• Determination of vital activities, analysis and evaluation of their requirements necessary for business continuity within limits that ensure that the requirements of stakeholders and relevant parties are not affected;
• Evaluation and analysis of the impact of the vital activities cessation on the Ministry’s works in emergency situations (disasters, terrorist attacks / workers strikes / cyberattacks, building collapse, information security breach, etc.).
• Protection against downtimes, reduction of the probability or impact of downtimes occurrence, and preparation of a mechanism of preparedness, response, and recovery;
• Determination and evaluation of the timescale necessary to restore work, activities and services after any incident occurs;
• Assessment of risks, protection of lives and property, improvement of the Ministry’s ability to survive and work during disturbances/emergencies, and demonstration of proactive risk control effectively and efficiently.
• Employees commitment at all levels to perform the tasks assigned to them and the implementation of all business continuity plans and strategies to ensure the achievement of the strategic and operational objectives of the Ministry;
• Compliance with all relevant legal and regulatory requirements;
• Continuous improvement through learning from successful experiences, exercises, and relevant best practices.
