Staffing Employment Practices Liability Insurance

Description

Our Employment Practices Liability insurance is designed to protect staffing firms against claims brought by an applicant or employee for allegations, including but not limited to discrimination, sexual harassment, and wrongful termination. This policy, designed specifically for staffing services, provides coverage for applicants, a staffing firm’s in-house employees and, of course, clients are added as insureds, not just “additional insureds,” on our policy. We include coverage for Wrongful Business Environment committed against non-employees of the staffing firm or the staffing firm’s clients.

Our Employment Practices Liability policy steps in to protect a staffing firm for legal actions alleging bodily injury and or property damage. For the insured’s contract employees (temporary placements), our occurrence-based policy specifically extends coverage to the insured for damage caused by the contract employee while on assignment (care, custody, and control). See actual policy for complete information.
