The number of allegations against men of power in the entertainment world and the rise of the #MeToo movement in response, has the nation’s attention on sexual harassment in the workplace.

No surprise that workplace discrimination claims are at an all-time high. A recent industry study indicates that only 1.2 percent of businesses have Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI). This exposure presents an opportunity for agents to fill the coverage gap with EPLI coverage for their commercial clients while also helping mitigate Errors and Omissions (E&O) claims for the agency.

Does your agency carry EPLI coverage? IIAV can provide coverage for member agencies either with an endorsement to your Westport E&O policy or as a standalone EPLI policy. Our carriers are admitted and rated A+ by AMBest.

We offer a range of limits and coverages to meet your needs including comprehensive First and Third-Party coverage for wrongful acts including discrimination, harassment and retaliation. The pricing is affordable and EPLI coverage is needed more today than ever due to an increasingly litigious workplace.
