# Employment Practices Liability

_Glossary_

Canonical: https://www.claimspages.com/learn/glossary/employment-practices-liability/

Coverage for claims by employees alleging discrimination, harassment, wrongful termination, and similar workplace issues.

EPLI covers defense and settlements for employment-related allegations. Third party EPL extensions may cover customers or vendors. Wage and hour claims are often sublimited or excluded.

HR best practices and hotlines reduce frequency.



A former employee alleges age discrimination in termination; EPLI funds defense and mediates a settlement.
