Start with the coverage purpose
Employment practices liability insurance can address specified claims alleging discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wrongful termination, or other covered employment wrongful acts. Claims-made reporting, defense costs, retentions, wage-and-hour treatment, third-party coverage, volunteers, independent contractors, and the definition of insured persons require careful review.
What the coverage can help address
- Certain discrimination, harassment, and retaliation allegations
- Specified wrongful termination and employment-practice claims
- Defense costs for covered employment allegations
Coverage questions to review
- Claims-made trigger, retroactive date, reporting duties, retention, and defense within the limit
- Wage-and-hour, benefits, labor, contract, bodily injury, and intentional-act exclusions
- Third-party claims, volunteers, interns, contractors, subsidiaries, and multi-state employment
Prepare a Stronger Insurance Submission
- Describe the complete operation, including changes since the last application
- Use current values, schedules, payroll, sales, vehicles, and locations where applicable
