Coverage Options
Employer Practice Liability Insurance provides vital protection for businesses facing a range of employment-related claims, covering legal expenses and potential settlements. Here are the key components of a comprehensive EPLI policy:
Discrimination Claims Coverage: Protects your business against claims of discrimination based on race, gender, age, religion, disability, or other protected characteristics. This coverage is essential for defending your business against allegations of unfair treatment in hiring, promotions, or terminations.
Harassment Claims Coverage: Offers protection if an employee or applicant alleges workplace harassment, including sexual harassment or a hostile work environment. This coverage helps cover the costs of defending your business and settling claims if necessary.
Wrongful Termination Coverage: Covers claims related to wrongful termination, including allegations that an employee was fired without just cause or in violation of company policies. This coverage provides financial protection for your business in the event of a legal dispute.
Retaliation Claims Coverage: Provides coverage if an employee claims they were retaliated against for engaging in protected activities, such as filing a complaint or participating in an investigation. This coverage helps mitigate the financial impact of retaliation claims.
Wage and Hour Disputes Coverage: Offers protection for claims related to wage and hour disputes, including allegations of unpaid overtime, misclassification of employees, and other wage-related issues. This coverage is particularly important for businesses in industries with complex wage and hour regulations.
These coverage options work together to create a robust defense against a variety of employment-related claims, helping you protect your business and maintain a positive work environment.
