  • security service was such “an integral part of the operation of a construction site” that “but for hiring of the independent contractor, the service would of necessity be provided by the employer’s own employees.”
  • “The issue of whether an employee would ordinarily accomplish the work with his own employees is simply a corollary to the inquiry ‘is the work performed part of the employer’s regular business,’ and is not to be determined solely by proof of the employment practices of similar businesses.”
