A Case for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion in Your EPLI Toolkit
When Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion goals are prioritized during employee hiring, promotion, evaluation, and development, better outcomes can be realized for retention. These activities are often the source of EPLI losses stemming from failure to promote, negligent evaluation, deprivation of career opportunities, and wrongful termination. The ability to craft and communicate a commitment and strategy with DEI benchmarks may have favorable impacts on EPLI premiums and reduce loss frequency and severity. Join us as Precious Norman-Walton guides us into the EPLI implications of DEI on employers.
