Employment practices liability insurance provides employers with a layer of protection against claims made by employees, former employees, prospective employees, and in some cases third parties, related to discrimination (age, race, sex, disability), wrongful termination, sexual harassment, and other employment related allegations. With challenging economic conditions that include layoffs, terminations and stagnant salaries, these claims have dramatically increased in recent years. A review of the statistics are startling, with employees winning nearly 80 percent of the cases that go to trial, and employers shelling out billions of dollars in legal expenses, lost time and judgement awards. If you have employees, you have an employment practices liability exposure and should consider transferring a substantial portion of this risk through an employment practices liability insurance policy.
