FAQs
Common Questions from Gyms & Fitness Studios Businesses
Does EPLI cover a wrongful termination claim from a fired trainer?
Yes. Wrongful termination is one of the most common EPLI claims and is covered. Having documented performance issues and proper HR procedures helps reduce these claims.
Does EPLI cover harassment claims involving members against staff?
Some EPLI policies include third-party coverage for member-to-staff harassment claims. Ask your agent specifically about this endorsement.
Aren't I already covered by general liability?
No — employment-related claims are specifically excluded from general liability policies. EPLI is a separate, specialized policy designed specifically for the employment relationship. Most businesses with even a handful of employees should consider it.
Does EPLI cover wage and hour violations?
Standard EPLI policies typically do not cover wage and hour class action claims under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). Some carriers offer a limited endorsement. It's an important detail to review. A licensed agent can explain what's included and what's excluded.
