MuniPro®, Public Officials Employment Practices Liability Insurance, is designed to address the significant exposures faced by public entities and those who serve them.  MuniPro responds to claims brought against an insured public entity, its employees and volunteers for any alleged or actual breach of duty, neglect, error, misstatement or omission in the course of public duties.  Defense is provided for claims, even if the allegations are ultimately proven groundless.  Coverage also extends to protect insureds from claims arising from any of eleven employment practices violations, including retaliation claims.
