Employment Practices Liability Insurance Employment-related lawsuits are a growing concern for employers of all sizes, including home-based businesses. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) reported that almost 100,000 charges were filed in 2011.
Avoid a Lawsuit As costs for litigation and damage awards climb, experts predict that employment liability will only become more complex. As a result, it is critical for business owners to understand their exposures and options for managing risks.
Employment Practices Liability (EPL) Insurance is a policy used to cover your risks due to some of the most common employment-related lawsuits.
Lawsuits that EPL Can Cover: • Wrongful Termination: The discharge
of an employee for invalid reasons.
• Discrimination: The denial of equal
treatment to employees who are members of a protected class.
• Sexual Harrassment: Subjecting an
employee to unwelcome sexual advances, obscene or offensive remarks, or the failure to stop such behavior.
