CHICO-NAZARIO, J.
Considering the foregoing, plus taking judicial notice of the general practice in private, as well as in government institutions and industries, of hiring an independent contractor to perform special services,[56] ranging from janitorial, security and even technical services, we can only conclude that HI is a legitimate job contractor.  As such legitimate job contractor, the law creates an employer-employee relationship between HI and petitioners[57] which renders HI liable for the latter's claims.
