0461 An employer who secures payment of workers' compensation by purchasing insurance or obtaining permission to self insure is immune from tort liability to employees for job-related injuries, but a contract between a special employer and a general employer requiring the general employer to maintain workers' compensation insurance does not satisfy the special employer's obligation to secure payment, and does not immunize the special employer against tort liability.
