Because employment practices (EPL) claims continues to increase, companies – large and small – are faced with catastrophic loss exposure. Any employer, no matter how effective its employment practices and procedures, is vulnerable to employment-related liabilities.

Employment Practices Violations include:

• Employment-related misrepresentation(s) to an employee or applicant for employment with the company
• Employment-related libel, slander, humiliation, defamation and invasion of privacy, including the giving of negative or defamatory statements in connection with an employee reference
• Wrongful failure to employ or promote
• Wrongful deprivation of career opportunity with the company or wrongful demotion or negligent employee evaluation
• Wrongful termination
• Harassment
• Discrimination
• Retaliation
• Wrongful discipline
• Failure to grant tenure
