The purpose of this document is to clarify how the payroll is to be processed for \[COMPANY\] ("the Client") if the Client is unable to complete their usual processes due to unforeseen circumstances. The overall objective is to ensure there is the least amount of disruption to employees and their pay. Note that this is only initiated as a last resort after the Client has exhausted all options internally. As our payroll is cloud based, the Client can submit payroll from anywhere even if they have no access to their own offices or own server. We encourage at Clients have an internal BCP in place that covers Payroll submission to Datacom based on different events that could occur. This is a standard BCP and the Client is welcome to make changes based on their requirements and Datacom will edit the document once both parties agree on the changes made |
