Employment Practices Liability

As a professional, you may feel confident about your abilities to handle personnel issues in your agency. However, you can't be everywhere all the time. It is vital to your organization to have a ready means of defense from an action initiated against you or someone in your agency. The action may be a groundless retaliatory act or one which the courts might find justifiable. Through the ERC EPL policy, you are provided a defense and you are insured for damages caused by covered wrongful employment practices.
 
You are also covered for employment-related acts of discrimination. In the past five years, over $1 billion have been paid to claimants of wrongful employment practices. The business world is changing; an error in your agency employee handbook or orientation program, an error in your job application or your interview process can be a potential liability situation for you and your agency.
