  • Is EPL insurance required by law?

    No, EPL insurance is not legally required, but it’s highly recommended for businesses to protect against employment-related claims. Tennessee employers, especially those with a history of disputes or operating in high-risk industries, benefit significantly from this coverage. Without it, businesses face potential financial ruin from costly legal battles.

  • Who needs EPL insurance?

    Any business with employees can benefit from EPL insurance. Even small businesses face risks related to employment practices, such as discrimination or wrongful termination claims. Larger companies with HR departments also face challenges navigating complex regulations. Wright Risk designs policies for businesses of all sizes and industries, ensuring tailored coverage that protects against the specific risks your company faces.

  • What types of claims are excluded from EPL insurance?

    EPL insurance typically doesn’t cover claims related to wage and hour violations, bodily injury, or criminal acts.

Wright Risk Consultants provides clear explanations of what’s included and excluded in your policy, helping you identify any gaps and recommend additional protections where necessary.

  • How can I reduce the likelihood of employment claims?

    Preventing claims starts with fostering a positive workplace culture and ensuring compliance with labor laws. Regular employee training on anti-discrimination and anti-harassment policies, clear communication of workplace expectations, and thorough documentation of processes all reduce risks. Wright Risk goes further by offering compliance resources, training recommendations, and HR audits to help your business minimize exposure to potential claims.

  • Does EPL insurance cover third-party claims?
