He was using the portable outhouse when a forklift driven by another company's employee struck scaffolding. The scaffolding collapsed onto the outhouse, and the outhouse collapsed. Employee #1 sustained contusions to his back and knee. He did not require hospitalization. The subsequent investigation determined that the supervisor was a bystander and not directly involved in the site work activity.
