Please read our information disclaimer here.
In a business landscape focused on fairness and inclusivity, Equality Insurance is essential. EPLI connects you with insurance solutions that cover equality-related risks.
What Australian Law Says
Equality in the workplace is a fundamental principle under Australian law. The Fair Work Act 2009 and various anti-discrimination acts require businesses to treat employees and job applicants fairly, without discrimination based on gender, race, age, disability, or other protected attributes.
Consequences of Equality Violations
Violations of equality laws can result in legal disputes, financial penalties, and reputational damage for businesses. Claims can arise from perceived inequalities in hiring, pay, promotion, or other employment practices.
How Equality Insurance Helps
EPLI facilitates Equality Insurance to protect businesses from the financial and legal repercussions of equality-related claims. This insurance covers legal defence costs and any settlements or damages awarded in such disputes.
What's Covered in Equality Insurance
Policies for Equality Insurance, sourced through EPLI, often include coverage for legal expenses and compensation payments. Understanding the specifics of these policies, such as coverage limits and exclusions, is crucial, and EPLI guides in selecting appropriate coverage.
What is typically not covered?
Typically, equality insurance does not include coverage for:
- Intentional violations of equality laws
- Claims related to non-employment practices
- Disputes arising from non-compliance with other laws
- Known equality issues prior to policy start
