employment practices liability insurance (EPLI)

A form of liability insurance covering wrongful acts arising from the employment process. The most frequent types of claims alleged under such policies include: wrongful termination, discrimination, and sexual harassment. The forms are written on a claims-made basis and generally exclude coverage for large-scale, companywide layoffs. In addition to being written as a stand-alone coverage, EPLI is frequently available as an endorsement to directors and officers (D&O) liability policies.
