As a professional, you are right to feel confident about your ability to handle personnel issues -- but you can't be everywhere all the time. It's critical that you have a ready means of defense whether the action initiated against you or one of your management team is a groundless retaliatory act, or one which the courts might deem justifiable.
To protect your agency against lawsuits resulting from employment practices and discrimination, you can add Employment Practices and Discrimination Liability coverage to your Westport/Swiss Re E&O policy.
Through our EPL policy you are proviede a defense, and you are insured for damages caused by covered wrongful employment practices which include:
- sexual harassment
- wrongful termination
- wrongful discipline
- defamation
- equal pay violations
- wrongful infliction of emotional distress or retaliation
- breach of employment contract
- negligent evaluation
You're also covered for employment related acts of discrimination. This coverage extends to acts that pertain to an employee's:
- disability
- race
- handicap
- religion
- creed
- age
- gender
- sexual orientation
- sexual preference
- pregnancy
- national origin
