Employment Practices Liability (EPL)
Protect against employment lawsuits
Employment practices disputes have become one of the fastest-growing sources of litigation in the United States and a significant concern to every healthcare organization. Any company with one or more employees has exposure to employment practices claims.
Discrimination based on race, sex or age makes up a significant amount of all employment claims. Employees can also bring actions based on sexual harassment, retaliation, or other wrongful employment-related practices.
No segment of the healthcare industry is immune to charges of discriminatory practices.
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has statistical analysis of the total number of individual charge filings dating back to 1997, and although its scope is not limited to the healthcare industry, the threat is real and is something that all employers should plan for.
