Staffing Errors and Omissions Insurance
Staffing professionals face unique liability risks that go beyond general business exposures. When a client claims that a staffing agency or recruiter made a mistake—whether in placement, screening, or contractual obligations—it can lead to costly legal action. These lawsuits can name individuals as well as the company, putting personal assets at risk. Even if the claim is unfounded, defense costs can be significant. That’s why having tailored Errors and Omissions (E&O) coverage is critical for staffing agencies.
Alexander J. Wayne & Associates, Inc. specializes in placing Staffing Errors and Omissions Insurance for agencies of all sizes. With access to over 40 markets, including “A” rated carriers from both domestic and London open markets, we can help brokers and agents find the right solution for hard-to-place staffing risks.
