Even a single employee claim, founded or not, can be costly to defend and damaging to your reputation.
Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI) protects your business from lawsuits related to wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, and other workplace issues.
At Trailstone Insurance Group, we help you choose coverage that safeguards both your company and your employees, so you can focus on running your business with confidence.
Running a business means managing people, and people bring both value and risk. Even the most respectful, well-run workplaces can face accusations that end up in court. EPLI helps protect your business when workplace conflicts turn into legal claims.
Allegations of harassment, discrimination, wrongful termination, or unfair pay can be among the most costly challenges a business faces. EPLI helps address these head-on.
Even if the claim has no merit, attorney fees, court costs, and settlements can add up quickly. EPLI gives you the resources to respond effectively.
Small and midsize companies often have more exposure because they lack in-house HR or formal legal teams. EPLI acts as a safety net before issues escalate.
An EPLI policy can help defend your business against costly and time-consuming employment-related lawsuits:
Claims that an employee was fired without just cause or in violation of law.
Allegations based on race, gender, age, religion, disability, or other protected status.
Claims of unwanted advances, comments, or a hostile work environment.
Accusations that you punished an employee for reporting illegal conduct or exercising legal rights.
Claims that advancement opportunities were unfairly denied.
Allegations that you mishandled or improperly shared personal employee information.
It starts with a letter or an email.
A former employee says they were treated unfairly. Maybe they believe they were let go for the wrong reason, denied a promotion, or paid less than they deserved. You remember the situation differently, but that does not stop the process from moving forward.
In that moment, the focus shifts from growing your business to defending it. Legal fees, court costs, and settlement demands start to pile up, even if you have done nothing wrong.
EPLI is there to protect your finances and your reputation so one claim does not become the turning point you never wanted.
