AVMA PLIT is passionate about keeping your business and employees safe from a myriad of adverse events and risks such as natural disasters, equipment failures, jobsite accidents and much more.
Listeners of the Blunt Dissection Podcast will receive a free digital copy of our veterinary-specific safety manual and free quotes for business insurance policies designed to shield your practice from risk, allowing you to focus on what matters most – your patients.
Business Owners Policies
A key part of your business is your physical space— your buildings, medical equipment, furniture, computers and more. Veterinary Business Property and Liability—also known as a Business Owner’s Policy—protects all of that and more.
Workers’ Compensation
This policy protects your workers financially if they’re injured on the job. The PLIT program can also provide strategies for avoiding injuries in the first place.
Employment Practice Liability
Even the most disciplined practices can face allegations of illegal employment operations, and complaints with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) can be filed in a matter of minutes. Even if a case is meritless, allegations of harassment or wage and hour disputes are expensive to defend.
