Illinois Appellate Court
Civil Court
Workers Compensation
Section 1(a)(4) and Section 4(a)(3) of Workers Compensation Act do not require a borrowing employer to duplicate the coverage that a company lending employees is contractually obligated to obtain, or to pay duplicate premiums, or to increase its self-insured retention to cover borrowing employees. An employer and its insurer cannot selectively omit an employee from coverage of a workers compensation policy.
(PALMER and TAYLOR, concurring.)
