If you think your employees would never sue you, think again. According to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, employee-related charges have risen by 31 percent since 2006. When your company is accused of wrong-doing, you have to prepare a defense, and that’s very expensive … even when you’re innocent.
There are countless reasons that employees sue – ranging from alleged FMLA violations, failure to accommodate disability, workplace harassment, wrongful termination and discrimination to name a few. Make sure you’re prepared with Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI).
