Coming to work and beginning the payroll process each week has become part of what we do.  But sometimes we overlook the realty that a natural disaster could stop us from getting to the office one day.  Or even a worldwide pandemic like COVID-19 could change the way we do business in the matter of days for an extended period of time.      How will employees still get paid when a crisis situation occurs?  With the growth of centralized payroll systems, the reality of one location having a disaster that can stop payroll for an entire company is a real concern.
