E-Risk Services, LLC offers
State-of-the Art
New EPL Risk Management
Service
Flanders, NJ (April 1,
2009) – E-Risk
Services, LLC has partnered with the workplace HELPLINE ®, LLC to deliver the E-Risk EPL HELPLINE at no additional charge to insureds. We understand that Insureds need to make
informed decisions when dealing with human resource and employment law
issues.
These current economic times have created a tumultuous
employment environment. According to the
EEOC, there were 95,402 wrongful termination charges filed against U.S.
employers in 2008, more than a 15% increase from 2007 and the largest annual increase
in over fifteen years (source: www.eeoc.gov). Clearly, in these difficult economic times, employment
law issues such as Wage/Hour, Harassment, Discrimination, Wrongful Termination
and FMLA are constantly challenging employers.
We at E-Risk recognize these challenges, and have now combined
industry-leading coverage and underwriting service with industry-leading risk
management services. To that end, E-Risk is excited and proud to work with the workplace HELPLINE®, LLC
to deliver the E-Risk EPL HELPLINE
solution for all of our insureds at no additional charge.
The E-Risk EPL HELPLINE offers a patented solution that delivers
real-time access to HR and employment law information and unlimited expert
legal support provided by a national law firm. The E-Risk EPL HELPLINE provides substantial value
to insureds looking to maximize their EPL risk
management efforts. Each E-Risk insured will
be personally enrolled into these services.
All E-Risk non-profit clients will also have access to the online E-Risk
EPL HELPLINE resource.
"We are pleased with the enhancements this solution offers to
our loyal and valued brokers and insureds to help differentiate E-Risk Services, LLC in the
marketplace. For the past 11 years, the
E-Risk Services team has been committed to providing a superior product and
E-Risk EPL HELPLINE demonstrates our sincere desire to follow through on our
