A valuable Coverage Good for Your Business or Organization
Business Insurance is pleased to offer Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI). EPLI provides additional coverage your business or organization may face: defense and indemnity losses involving litigation that could potentially arise from past, present, or future employee/employer relations in which the scenario could lead to a significant loss or lawsuit.

- Negligent promotions or retentions
