Nuts & Bolts:

Highlights of the program include coverage for full prior acts; specific coverage for employment claims arising out of company Internet and e-mail; and a broad wrongful employment act definition. Third-party discrimination coverage, including sexual harassment, is also available. The non-admitted (currently admitted only in New York) EPLI program offers an extension of coverage for the lawful spouse and has no exclusions for intentional acts, class action or downsizing. As part of the EPLI program, producers have free access to a third-party, flexible, online employment practices training tool.
