The trench may have been approximately three ft wide at the base and from between 6 ft to 8 ft wide at the top. One of the employees exited the trench to operate the back-hoe machine. Employee #1 remained in the trench in an area that was approximately 8 ft deep. There was no shoring provided. The south wall of the trench caved in and completely buried Employee #1.
