Summary
In Morgan v. Hudson River Ore Iron Co. (133 N.Y. 666, 670) it was held that "if a master is engaged in a complex business, that requires definite regulations for the safety and protection of his employees, a failure to adopt proper rules as well as laxity in their enforcement, is negligence per se."
