According to the American Bar Association, in light of significant employment law changes from 2014 to 2016,  liability risks are projected to grow over the next few years—making employment practices liability insurance (EPLI) policies all the more consequential. As noted in a recent report, lawsuits against employers related to their employment practices have been on the rise as more employees are aware of their rights, and media coverage has publicized many high-profile employment disputes. Unfortunately, dental practices are not immune to the serious financial damage these types of claims can cause.  So that your practice is protected, your insurance portfolio should include EPLI coverage. In most cases, this can be added to an existing commercial policy and is usually quite inexpensive.
