Protect your business with Employment Disputes Insurance

Employment Dispute Insurance protects your business from the potentially high costs of Employment Tribunal claims, including legal fees, settlements, and awards.

Protect your business from the financial impact of an ET claim

Our cover shields your business from the significant costs often associated with Employment Tribunal claims, including the legal fees for defence, and any potential settlements or awards that may arise.

Cover from the start

Our protection starts right at the ACAS Early Conciliation stage, ensuring you’re covered from the very beginning of the claim process.

Bespoke to meet your business needs

We understand that every business is unique, which is why our cover is fully customisable. Whether you’re a small business or a large organisation, we work closely with you to design a protection plan that aligns with your operations. Cover can extend to the costs of defending Health and Safety prosecutions or the legal costs of enforcing restrictive covenants, if this would benefit the business.

Allows you to maintain decision-making control

You’re not confined to a one-size-fits-all solution. Unlike the risk-averse policies offered by larger competitors, our cover allows you the flexibility to make decisions that align with your business goals. You have the freedom to navigate claims in a way that supports your business, without unnecessary limitations or restrictions.

Completely optional

This cover is entirely optional, meaning you can choose whether it fits your business needs without being tied into a mandatory policy.

Have peace of mind knowing you’re protected

Enjoy the peace of mind that comes with comprehensive support, while still having the freedom to adapt as your business evolves. You have control over your cover when it matters most.

Whether you’re facing claims related to wrongful dismissal, discrimination, or other employment issues, this insurance provides financial cover and support.

With tailored cover that suits your business’s unique needs, you can move forward knowing you’re safeguarded without being locked into rigid, one-size-fits-all policies.

Elements of cover can include:

  • Legal fees for defending an Employment Tribunal Claim or dealing with Early Conciliation
  • Employment Tribunal settlements or awards
  • Legal fees for defending Health and Safety prosecutions
  • Legal fees for enforcing restrictive covenants against former employees
