EPLI Employment Practices
Liability
Over the past four years,
jury verdicts and
legislative enactment’s
regarding employment law
have greatly altered the
approach taken by corporate
entities as it relates to
the employer/employee
relationship.
Employment law cases have
fast become one of the
largest components of the
civil dockets of federal
courts, rising 125% over the
past 20 years. Current
trends are showing the
majority of employment
practices cases are now
going into state courts, and
therefore, federal court
cases are only the tip of
the iceberg. In 1998, the
average award for a sexual
harassment suit was $300,000
and the defense costs on
these cases are averaging
$180,000-$250,000 each.
