1. Defining Incident
Incident is defined as any event that has already impacted or has the potential to negatively affect the business operations of the PPL. Incident situation that can affect the business operations, subject to certain pre-defined criterion, may lead to the activation of the Incident Management Plan. The incident or disruption can be any of the following: Country Wide A disaster affecting the entire country. e.g. pandemic across Pakistan Location Wide A disaster affecting a geographical location. e.g. terrorism / sabotage, earthquake, flood, sandstorm in any of the cities where PPL has offices and / or fields. Site Specific A disaster affecting only a specific site e.g. physical damage to the Head Office at PIDC, Karachi caused by terrorism, fire, smoke, water, or structural damage.

2. Incident Levels
Incident Levels are based on the amount of damage to the infrastructure of PPL and the estimated amount of time required for restoring normal operations. Damage Assessment team will perform this assessment and the incident level will be declared by the Crisis Management Team Leader in consultation with the BCM Steering Committee. The levels also indicate the type and length of time the alternate processing facilities will be needed. Incident declaration at PPL shall conform to one of the Incident Levels described in the following table: Sr. No. Incident Level

Criteria Level-I incidents occur more frequently in day to day operations. The severity level is considered low because the effects are often isolated to small set of critical business processes. The cause of the disruption is often failure of a single component, system or service. Level-I incidents can be handled within the departmental/sectional resources. Level-II incidents occur less frequently, but have a higher impact compared to the Level-I incident. This kind of event disrupts normal operations of some but not all critical business units. The operational disruptions result from major failure of multiple systems and equipment. Level-II incidents require the assistance of other sections/departments at the site. Resolution of such incidents should require involvement of Departmental Heads and few of Functional Heads only. The possibility of occurrence of Level-III incident is very small but the extent of the impact is significantly larger as compared to the other levels. Such incidents disrupt normal operations of most or all of the critical business processes. The operational disruptions are the result of inaccessibility or failure of most or all of the systems and equipments at a site. Level-III incidents require the notification and assistance from the highest level of the management including all the Functional Heads. Table 1: Incident Level Criteria

III

As level I and level II incidents are more of department level instead of organization level, resumption plans of relevant departments will be used for the recovery of departments operations. These plans should be available in the Standard Operating Manuals of the departments at offices and fields. For level III incident, the BCP will be invoked, and business resumption will be carried out using the Business Recovery Plans for each of the PPLs departments respectively. In case of a disaster, in which critical components like building, equipment and human resource are totally unavailable at the same time, BCP cannot be invoked. For such disasters, the decision lies with the Board of Directors or the Government to decide the course of action.
