1Opinion of the Court
BAKER, Judge.
When does a construction manager, by contract or conduct, assume a duty to ensure the safety of employees working on a construction site?
Appellant-plaintiff Patricia Perryman (Perryman), as administratrix of the estate of her husband Norman Perryman, challenges the trial court's grant of summary judgment in favor of appellee-defendant Huber, Hunt, & Nichols, Inc. (HHN) in her wrongful death action. Perryman contends that the trial court erred in not concluding that HHN, either by contract or conduct, assumed a duty to require all workers to comply with safety regulations. 2
