[The labor supply company, i.e., the formal employer,] provided Hudson with compensation benefits through its insurer.... Hudson’s exclusive remedy for the injuries he suffered ... is the workers’ compensation benefits he has already received. Accordingly, [the borrowing employer] is entitled to tort immunity under § 905(a).””
