Your company's plan that details manual workarounds for accounting and payment systems in an emergency would be included in what type of plan?

  1. Business continuity

  2. Critical incident

  3. Disaster recovery

  4. Injury and illness

The correct answer is: Business continuity

A business continuity plan outlines procedures and strategies for sustaining essential business operations during and after a disruption. The other options, critical incident, disaster recovery, and injury and illness, do not pertain to the coordination of business functions during an emergency. A critical incident plan typically involves a specific, immediate response to a crisis, such as a natural disaster. A disaster recovery plan focuses on restoring and recovering IT systems and data in the event of a technical disaster. An injury and illness plan specifically pertains to managing workplace injuries and illnesses and does not address overall business operations during an emergency.
