Did I miss where the "dropped package" came in?
If I am reading this correctly (and that may be a stretch), this decision means that both the contracting company and the supplying company are responsible for the benefits to the "employee", as that person is now an employee of BOTH companies (joint-employer). Rather than the PREVIOUS standard, which was that the supplying company ONLY was responsible for benefits (they performed all HR functions), and the contracting company ONLY managed the daily work (line manager).
