Dansig-Consociate Group issued the following announcement on Oct. 27.
(EPLI) covers companies against claims or lawsuits filed by employees, former employees and employment candidates regarding their employment relationship with an employer. EPLI policies can cover seasonal employees, leased employees and independent contractors. EPLI insurance coverage protects a company, its directors, officers, current and former employees. A company can use EPLI insurance to cover expenses involved in defending against claims or lawsuits related to employment (regardless of the outcome) and EPLI provides indemnification of the employer if the case is settled or a verdict is obtained against the employer. EPLI insures against claims of discrimination (based on age, sex, race, religion, color and national origin), sexual harassment claims, wrongful termination (including constructive discharge and retaliatory discharge), infliction of emotional distress and breach of contract, violation of the Family Medical Leave Act or other leave laws.
Some policies contain a catch-all category to provide coverage for claims of discrimination based on protected categories (e.g., sexual orientation) that are not covered under federal discrimination statutes, but may be covered by state or local law.
