Abstract
Zátěžový test organizace je prostředek k tomu, jak získat odpověď na jednoduchou otázku „Jak jsme na tom?“ pro případ nějaké krizové situace. Do veřejného povědomí pronikl tento termín v souvislosti s havárií na japonské jaderné elektrárně Fukushima, případně s prověrkami bank v období finanční krize. Po zkušenostech z pražského cvičení blackoutu v roce 2014 vznikla myšlenka aplikovat podobnou metodu na jakoukoliv organizaci s cílem zjistit její odolnost v mimořádných a krizových situacích. Zátěžový test organizace, což je de-facto cvičení na úrovni vrcholového managementu, byl v následujících letech úspěšně aplikován v řadě organizací a pomohl odhalit skryté problémy, na které by se přišlo až v případě skutečné krize a bylo by obtížné zachovat kontinuitu její činnosti. Uvedená metoda je vhodná nejen pro subjekty kritické infrastruktury, ale i pro jakékoliv organizace, které chtějí být na krizové situace připraveny a překonat je s co nejmenšími škodami. Tématická cvičení nalezla svůj obraz i ve standardech ISO a podle normy „ISO 22398:2013: „Emergency Preparedness and Response“ je možno po průběhu testu v souladu s metodikou získat i odpovídající certifikát.
An organizational stress test is a means of getting an answer to the simple question “How are we doing?” in case of a crisis situation. The term has entered the public consciousness in the context of the accident at the Japanese nuclear power plant Fukushima, or bank examinations during the financial crisis. Following the experience of the Prague blackout exercise in 2014, the idea was conceived to apply a similar method to any organisation to determine its resilience in emergency and crisis situations. The organisation stress test, which is a de-facto exercise at the top management level, was successfully applied in a number of organisations in the following years and helped to uncover hidden problems that would only be discovered in the event of a real crisis and would make it difficult to maintain continuity of its operations. This method is suitable not only for critical infrastructure entities, but also for any organisation that wants to be prepared for crisis situations and overcome them with the least possible damage. The thematic exercises have also found their image in ISO standards and according to ISO 22398:2013: “Emergency Preparedness and Response”, it is possible to obtain the corresponding certificate after the test in accordance with the methodology has been concluded.
