Hiring and firing practices have become legal minefields.
Do you know what type of decisions could trigger a claim? Do you know if it is legal to terminate a driver with a bad driving record?
There is no business immune from sexual harassment, wrongful termination or discrimination claims. For this reason, it’s important for businesses to have clear, consistent policies that apply to all their employees. The best defence against employment practice claims is to know the law in your province and then have policies and procedures that meet or exceed the legal standards.
Policy and procedure manuals can help reduce the potential for claims, but Employment Practices Liability Insurance (EPLI) is the best protection from costly legal matters involving your employees. Your team at Wilson Insurance can help!
