Employment Practices Liability Insurance
for Lawyers
No employer would consider going without General Liability
or Property Insurance, yet it is more likely an employer
will have an Employment Practices claim than a General
Liability or Property claim.
Can your business really afford to be without
this crucial coverage?
Over the past two decades, employment practice disputes
have become one of the fastest-growing sources of litigation
in the United States. Regardless of your industry or
the size of your business, no employer is immune to
charges of discriminatory practices from disgruntled
current or former employees.
- 41% of employment claims are against employers with 100 or fewer employees.
- It is estimated six out of ten companies have been named in a discrimination or sexual harassment lawsuit in the past five years.
- Over 30 million employment cases have been filed in Federal, State and Local courts.
- 94% of jurors believe the employer should be held responsible even if evidence shows no knowledge of alleged discrimination.
EPLI, or employment practices liability insurance,
protects the business and the corporate officers
from being sued should a lawsuit be filed against them
related to discrimination or harassment in the workplace.

from sexual harassment to racial discrimination to failure
to promote to wrongful termination.
