Going forward, critical enterprise status is to be granted to companies whose activities genuinely contribute to national defence capabilities, the functioning of critical infrastructure, the provision of essential services to the population, and the country&#8217;s macro-financial stability.<\/p>\n<p>During the meeting, the main sectors whose enterprises may qualify for the relevant status were also outlined.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Coordination Centre \u2013 a Single Platform for Aligning Defence and Economic Priorities<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the key elements of the new model will be the Coordination Centre, whose main functions will include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>coordinating sectoral and regional criticality criteria;<\/li>\n<li>providing recommendations on decisions by government authorities regarding the granting of the relevant status to enterprises;<\/li>\n<li>approving employee reservations exceeding 50%, replacing the previous approval mechanism through the Ministry of Defence&#8217;s interdepartmental working group.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The Coordination Centre is already working on reviewing the criteria.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the meeting was also dedicated to questions from the business community and practical aspects of implementing the new rules.<\/p>\n<p>The European Business Association continues its dialogue with representatives of government authorities to seek solutions to issues affecting businesses.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On 5 November, the European Business Association held a general meeting with representatives of the Ministry of Economy and Environment, the Ministry of Defence and the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine to discuss changes to the procedures for obtaining critical enterprise status and reserving employees, introduced by Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 1328.
