Comprehensive protection against employment lawsuits can mean the difference between keeping the doors open and locking them for good for many businesses. And, considering more than 40% of all employment practices lawsuits are filed against private employers with 15 to 100 employees, coverage against the damage these lawsuits can create is critical for many company’s survival.
With the forthcoming addition of Third Party Coverage as an option to the Frankenmuth Insurance Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI) program, your clients will gain additional support in this defense. This coverage will be available on policies with a May 1, 2011 or later inception date.
