1Opinion of the Court

McCORMICK, Justice.

This appeal involves consolidated coem-ployee tort actions arising from injuries received by plaintiffs in a ditch cave-in. The jury returned substantial verdicts for plaintiffs, and defendant appeals from the resulting judgments. Defendant raises questions about the delegability of an employer’s duty to provide employees a safe place to work, sufficiency of evidence of such delegation, rulings on instructions, admissibility of evidence, the statute of limitations, and jury misconduct.
