Mistakes happen
- Concerned about firing your top sales agent?
- Mistakenly go overboard with a compliment to your customer?
- Are you accommodating your employees with disabilities?
It can cost you your business
If you and/or your business are ever sued for one of the mistakes above, and a judgment or settlement is reached, disbursements and attorneys fees could reach hundreds of thousands of dollars. Without proper coverage, you could be responsible for these costs.
EPL coverage
Employment practices liability (EPL) insurance covers these costs to protect you and your business finances. EPL coverage protects you against claims of wrongful discrimination including any act or omission relating to discrimination or harassment based on an individual’s race, creed, color, age, gender, national origin, religion, disability, marital status or sexual preference, whether committed directly, indirectly, intentionally or unintentionally. Claims of wrongful employment practice such as wrongful dismissal, sexual harassment, wrongful discipline, and other acts are also covered.
