Employment Practises and Liability

Standard commercial liability insurance generally doesn't cover this area. This is where EPLI comes into play. Employment Practices Liability Insurance was started during the 1980’s, for employers who are targets of lawsuits that are not covered under general liability. The big players in this field include harassment, discrimination, and wrongful termination suits. While the number of lawsuits in this area grows at a high rate, actual plaintiff victories are rare. With wide media involvement, accusations without proof or reason and frivolous claims are abundant. Today's insurance companies know that with specialized representation, claims can be defended with efficiency and insurance can be offered to businesses while retaining a profit. If you ever face one of these situations, the legal financial aspect can be devastating. EPLI will not only cover your finance, but may also provide legal counsel.
