, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects. 38 General Risk Factors Related to Kyivstar Our business may be adversely impacted by work stoppages and other labor matters, including mobilization. Although we consider our relations with our employees to be generally good, there can be no assurance that our operations will not be impacted by unionization efforts, strikes or other types of labor disputes or disruptions. For instance, employee dissatisfaction or labor disputes could result from the implementation of cost savings initiatives or redundancies in our offices. We could also experience strikes or other labor disputes or disruptions in connection with social unrest or political events. For a discussion of our employees represented by works councils, unions or collective bargaining agreements, see “Business — Employees. ” Work stoppages could also occur due to natural disasters, civil unrest (including potential dissatisfaction with regards to our response to the ongoing war in Ukraine) or security breaches/threats, which would make access to work places and management of our systems difficult and may mean that we are not able to timely or cost effectively meet the demands of our customers. Furthermore, work stoppages or slow -downsexperienced by our customers or suppliers could result in lower demand for our services and products. In the event that we, or one or more of our customers or suppliers, experience a labor dispute or disruption, it could result in increased costs, negative media attention and political controversy, which could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects. Further, we may experience work perturbation and deficiencies due to loss of key personnel to mobilization efforts in connection with the war and migration outside of Ukraine, which may affect the quality of service delivery and timeliness of service restoration in connection with our Ukrainian operations. The war in Ukraine poses security risks to our people, our facilities, our operations and infrastructure, such as utilities and network services, and the disruption of any or all of them could significantly affect our business, financial conditions and results of operations. Since February 24, 2022, the Ukrainian government has declared and repeatedly extended martial law, which also includes the mobilization of citizens for military or other defense -relatedservice. This ongoing mobilization may require certain employees, including key employees, to leave their positions on short notice. See “ Risks Related to our Operations — If we are unable to retain or motivate key personnel, hire qualified personnel, or implement our strategic goals or corporate culture through our personnel, we may not be able to maintain our competitive position or to implement our business strategy.”
