Abstract
This Decision validates the Regulation on the procedure for introducing the electronic system "Risk Analysis" in monitoring compliance with legislation in the field of sanitary-epidemiological well-being. The system is intended to support oversight of compliance with sanitary-epidemiological and public health legislation by business entities. It was adopted pursuant to recent presidential decrees and government decisions aimed at increasing transparency in inspections, protecting entrepreneurs’ rights, and improving risk-based state supervision. The regulation establishes the legal framework, definitions, and principles governing the operation of the system.
The regulation requires the electronic risk analysis system to comply with national minimum standards for risk-based control mechanisms. Risk assessments may rely on administrative records, statistical data, previous violations, complaints from individuals or legal entities, information from media and public sources, and other lawful data sources. Authorities are prohibited from requesting documents directly from businesses solely for risk analysis purposes, and the assessment process must not interfere with business operations. Importantly, the existence of a risk identified by the system alone cannot serve as a basis for sanctions or enforcement measures against a business.
Businesses are automatically classified into high, medium, or low risk categories through a points-based evaluation system. Scores from 81 to 100 indicate high risk, scores from 61 to 81 indicate medium risk, and scores below 61 indicate low risk. The annex to the regulation lists ten risk indicators, including non-compliance with sanitary and hygiene requirements in construction and operations, failure to conduct mandatory medical examinations of employees, inadequate disinfection arrangements, poor laboratory test results, improper waste management practices, and lack of sanitary protection zones. Preventive measures and inspections may be conducted only for medium- and high-risk entities and solely to verify compliance with sanitary and public health legislation, while low-risk businesses are exempt from inspections. Businesses may appeal risk assessment outcomes through administrative or judicial procedures.
