The price of penalties

Wrongful dismissal claims are more and more common. With new COVID-19 standards in place, employers are having a harder time staying compliant, ensuring their employee’s rights to safe work, and legally dismissing staff.

Getting any of these wrong comes with a big price. Lawyer fees and legal costs can be between $5,000 to $30,000 – and that’s if you win. Losing costs even more. Depending on how severe the dispute is, you could be ordered to pay out $50,000 to $100,000 per claim.

That means it could take just one claim to ruin your business. Few, if any, small businesses can afford this, let alone have the money on hand to fight the case without coverage.

A small price for peace of mind

Peninsula does everything to protect your business from legal action in the first place. We offer HR and health & safety advice to keep you compliant and safe. But, if you face a dispute, it’s a relief knowing a team of experts has your back.

Notify our legal claims team if you receive a:

  • Employee demand letter
  • Employment standards claim
  • Human rights claim
  • Notice of a civil claim
  • Worker’s compensation claim
  • Health & safety enforcement proceeding

We provide you with 24/7 support through our advice line. And we’ll help you with any employment-related legal claims you face. Even if you only have one dispute, you’ll see an immediate return on your investment.

 

The best way to avoid the worst

Claims can quickly spiral out of control. Health & safety investigations can turn into criminal prosecutions. Wrongful dismissals can become human rights claims landing you in front of a provincial human rights tribunal.

Both can cost you tens of thousands in court fees and months of time. But with Peninsula’s expert support these costs are covered. And you’ll have legal advice for settling matters in your favour and avoiding large cost awards.

Ensuring your success

Peninsula Protect provides you with comprehensive protection. Signing up for our Full Compliance Protection plan keeps your business safe. It gives you legal representation for claims made against your business. And, it includes the legal costs of defending and contesting any employment or health & safety related cases.

You will receive coverage up to:

  • $125,000 for legal costs for each claim made in a contract year
  • An annual aggregate limit of $500,000

If the worst happens and you do lose, as long as you followed our advice and T&Cs you won’t have to pay the legal costs. So even if you don’t need it yet, knowing you have it is priceless.
