It may be vital to your case to know that New York has numerous laws mandating specific rules for construction sites. For example, under Chapter 240 of the state’s labor law, contractors and owners must protect employees on construction sites that are using devices such as:
- Scaffolding
- Ladders
- Blocks
- Hangers
- Hoists
