SCHOTT, Judge.

Plaintiff has appealed from a judgment dismissing his suit against supervisory personnel for damages arising out of an injury sustained on the job. The judgment was based upon a jury verdict returned on special interrogatories finding that the four defendants were negligent but that plaintiff was contributorily negligent. The principal issue raised by plaintiff is that the facts and law do not support the defense of contributory negligence.
