Employers Practices Liability Insurance

Specific purpose built employment practices cover

The possibilities for employment actions against businesses are multiplying. Most staff are aware of their rights and are quite prepared to take action against their employers if they think these rights are breached. Meanwhile compensation continues to increase, setting precedents and giving employees everywhere a context for their own grievances. Of course, outside of South Africa, companies with any kind of International exposure face the full force of class actions and a history of huge settlements.
