Corgi vs TechInsurance Employment Practices Liability Insurance

Corgi sells EPLI as a standalone startup policy and bundles it into its Series A, Growth Stage and Custom packages, describing it as coverage for claims arising from the employment relationship: wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, retaliation and failure to hire. ⁶Company-reported. Product page for form CORG-EPL-0100, last reviewed by Corgi on April 24, 2026 per the page itself.

TechInsurance arranges employment practices liability insurance (EPLI) and says it can be purchased standalone or paired with directors and officers insurance in a management liability bundle. ⁹Company-reported. EPLI product page.

Corgi's disclaimers say coverage may be underwritten through affiliated or partner carriers, including Corgi Insurance Company, Inc. (an admitted carrier) or Technology Risk Retention Group, Inc.; the EPLI product page itself does not name which entity underwrites a given EPLI policy. ¹Company-reported. General carrier-financial-strength disclosure that applies across Corgi's product lines, not an EPLI-specific underwriter statement; your policy names the actual insurer.

The reviewed page does not name the issuing insurer for an EPLI policy. ⁹Not publicly disclosed. EPLI product page as read on 2026-09-23.

Corgi says EPLI coverage applies to claims made and pursued in the United States, its territories, Puerto Rico or Canada, and that startups with international employees should discuss this limitation with their advisor. ⁶Company-reported. Policy notes for form CORG-EPL-0100; claims brought in other jurisdictions are not covered under the standard policy.

TechInsurance targets EPLI at small businesses with a sizable workforce, and specifically notes that companies too small to have a dedicated HR team may face employment lawsuits more often since they often lack the resources to resolve disputes before they become legal claims. ⁹Company-reported. EPLI product page, Why do I need employment practices liability insurance? section.

The standard policy has two insuring agreements: Agreement A covers claims by current employees, former employees and job applicants alleging discrimination, harassment, retaliation or wrongful termination; Agreement B covers claims by third parties, such as customers or vendors, alleging harassment or discrimination by an employee during a business interaction. ⁶Company-reported. Coverage summary for form CORG-EPL-0100; the issued policy and declarations control.

The standard policy excludes wage-and-hour claims (including FLSA misclassification and overtime disputes); Corgi offers a Wage & Hour Defense Costs Endorsement that covers defense costs only, not settlements or judgments, for these claims. ⁶Company-reported. Policy notes and Available Add-ons section for form CORG-EPL-0100; the endorsement requires separate issuance and does not add indemnity coverage.

Independent contractors are excluded from the policy's definition of 'Employee' by default; Corgi offers an Independent Contractors and Leased Workers Endorsement to extend coverage to claims from contractors and leased workers. ⁶Company-reported. Policy notes and Available Add-ons section for form CORG-EPL-0100; endorsement required and availability may vary by jurisdiction and underwriting.

TechInsurance says EPLI covers claims of discrimination, sexual harassment, wrongful termination, negligent handling of employee benefits, breach of employment contract, and invasion of privacy, and is typically written as a claims-made policy. ⁹Company-reported. EPLI product page; general policy description, not a specific policy form.

Corgi's illustrative EPLI structure shows limits up to $1 million per claim and $2 million in the policy aggregate, with a $25,000 self-insured retention per claim and defense costs included within the limit. ⁶Company-reported. Illustrative policy structure on the product page; actual limits and retentions appear on the declarations.

TechInsurance says EPLI policyholders pay a median of $257 per month, with most businesses paying between about $750 and more than $14,000 a year, depending on profession risk, policy limits and deductible, employee count, turnover rate, and claims history. ⁹Company-reported. EPLI product page cost section; a company-reported median and range from TechInsurance's own book of business, not a published rate table.
