2. There is a case in which a man falls off of a scaffold because he was not provided with proper safety equipment. In the early 90's, there was a New York Court of Appeals case named Ross v. Curtis-Palmer (something), and it had a headnote that held what we need for a current case. Specifically, it said the following:

N.Y. Lab Law §241(6) requires owners and contractors to provide reasonable and adequate protection and safety for workers and to comply with the specific safety rules and regulations promulgated by the commissioner of the Department of Labor. The duty to comply with the commissioner's regulation is nondelegable. Thus, to the extent that a plaintiff asserts a viable claim §241(6), he need not show that the defendants exercised supervision or control over his worksite in order to establish his right of recovery.
