Michael J. McGuire filed a common law negligence action for personal injuries against Tenneco, Inc., d/b/a Packaging Corporation of America.

The Court of Appeals, Western District, reversed and remanded. We granted transfer to consider the applicability of Section 287.040.1, RSMo 1986, to a temporary, secondary employment relationship. We have jurisdiction. Mo. Const, art. V., § 10. Affirmed.
