TARY OF STATE r 5 U.S.Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity&Infrastructure Security Agency Office of the Director Weshiagtou,DC 20328 Ati CISA r� y ,' LlHFif!RIBASTAUCTart March 28,2020 ADVISORY MEMORANDUM ON IDENTIFICATION OF ESSENTIAL CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE WORKERS DURING COVID-I9 RESPONSE FROM: Christopher C.Krebs Director Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency(CISA) As the Nation comes together to slow the spread of COVID-19,on March 16th the President issued updated Coronavirus Guidance for America that highlighted the importance of the critical infrastructure workforce. The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency(CISA)executes the Secretary of Homeland Security's authorities to secure critical infrastructure.Consistent with these authorities,CISA has developed,in collaboration with other federal agencies,State and local governments,and the private sector,an"Essential Critical Infrastructure Workforce" advisory list.This list is intendedto help State,local,tribal andter itosial officials as they work to protect their communities,while ensuring continuity of functions critical to public health and safety,as well as economic and national security.Decisions informed by this list should also take into consideration additional public health considerations based on the specific COVID-19-related concerns of particular jurisdictions. This list I.advisory in nature.It is not,nor should it be considered,a federal directive or standard.Additionally,this advisory list is not intended to be the exclusive list of critical infrastructure sectors,workers,and functions that should continue during the COVID-19 response across all jurisdictions.Individual jurisdictions should add or subtract essential workforce categories based on their own requirements and discretion. The advisorylist identifies workers who conduct a range of operations and services that are typically essential to continued critical infrastructure viability,including staffing operations centers,maintaining and repairing critical infrastructure,operating call centers, working construction,and performing operational functions,among others. It also includes workers who support crucial supply chains and enable functions for critical infrastructure.The industries they support represent,but are not limited to,medical and healthcare,telecommunications,information technology systems,defense,food and agriculture,transportation and logistics,energy,water and wastewater,law enforcement, and public works. State,local,tribal,and territorial governments are responsible for implementing and executing response activities,including decisions about access and reentry,in their communities,while the Federal Government is in a supporting role.Officials should use their own judgment in issuing implementation directives and guidance. Similarly,while adhering to relevant public health guidance,critical infrastructure owners and operators are expected to use their own judgement on issues of the prioritization of business processes and workforce allocation to best ensure continuity of the essential goods and services they support.All decisions should appropriately balance public safety,the health and safety of the workforce, and the continued delivery of essential critical infrastructure services and functions.While this advisory list is meant to help public officials and employers identify essential work functions,it allows for the reality that some workers engaged in activity determined to be essential may be unable to perform those functions because of health-related concerns. CISA will continue to work with our partners in the critical infrastructure community to update this advisory list if necessary as the Nation's response to COVID-19 evolves. Should you have questions about this list,please contact CISA at CISA.CATQa cisa.dbs.gov.

Guidance on the Essential Critical infrastructure Workforce: Ensuing 4 f,>mmunity and National Resilience In COVID-21.9 Response Version 2.0(March 28, 2020) THE IMPORTANCE OF ESSENTIAL CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE WORKERS Functioning critical Infrastructure is imperative during the response to the COVID-19 emergency for both public health end safety as well as community well-being.Certain critical infrastructure Industries have a special responsibility in these times to continue operations. This advisory guidance and accompanying list are intended to support state, local,tribal,territorial and industry partners in identifying the critical infrastructure sectors and the essential workers needed to maintain the services and functions Americans depend on daily and that need to be able to operate resiliently during the COVID-19 pandemic response. This document gives advisory guidance on defining essential critical infrastructure workers.Promoting the ability of such workers to continue to work during periods of community restriction,access management,social distancing,or closure orders/directives is crucial to community resilience and continuity of essential functions. CISA will continually solicit and accept feedback on the list and will evolve the list in response to stakeholder feedback. We will also use our various stakeholder engagement mechanisms to work with partners on how they ere using this list and share those lessons learned and beet practices broadly.Feedback can be sent to CISA.CAT@CISA.DHS.GOV, CONSIDERATIONS FOR GOVERNMENT AND BUSINESS This list was developed In consultation with federal agency partners,Industry experts,end State and local officials,and Is based on several key principles: 1. Response efforts to the COVID-19 pandemic are locally executed,state managed,and federally supported.' 2. Everyone should follow guidance from the CDC,as well as State and local government officials,regarding strategies to limit disease spread. 3. Workers should be encouraged to work remotely when possible and focus on core business activities. In- person,non-mandatory activities should be delayed until the resumption of normal operations. 4. When continuous remote work Is not possible,businesses should enlist strategies to reduce the likelihood of spreading the disease.This includes,but is not necessarily limited to,separating staff by offsetting shift hours or days and/or social distancing.These steps can preserve the workforce and allow operations to continue. 5. All organizations should implement their business continuity and pandemic plans or put plans in place if they do not exist.Delaying implementation is not advised and puts at risk the viability of the business and the CONNECT WITH US Iririloltr icoirycoirt ar►,.FRO s3nuit4 www.cisa.gov LLIJatrrt- ttaqisttr<ture- arflk - c,r Fo more Information, c 4A3ily. i- iper 14.us� xi goy email CISA.CAT@ci'sa:dhs.gov Ii Fandbour rtr/Ct3F Essential Critical infrastructure Workforce health and safety of the employees. 8. Reiiance on technology and Just-in-time supply chains means that certain workers must be able to access certain sites,facilities,and assets to ensure continuity of functions. 7. Government employees,such as emergency managers,and the business community need to establish and maintain lines of communication. 8. When government and businesses engage in discussions about essential critical infrastructure workers,they need to consider the implications of business operations beyond the Jurisdiction where the asset or facility is located.Businesses can have sizeable economic and societal Impacts as well as supply chain dependencies that are geographlcallydistributed. 9. Whenever possible,Jurisdictions should align access and movement control policies related to critical infrastructure workers to lower the burden of workers crossing jurisdictional boundaries.
