Why? Secretary gets a call from a nigerian prince, starts that letter.exe she gets in her e-mail, her computer gets fscked, IT takes her drive, restores a clean image, and she gets back to work.
If the only copy of some important document is on his/her pc, or that pc can overwrite/delete the only copy, then they've fscked up by design... and yes, now better backups would help.
