Once the project owner has executed a contact with its independent contractor, delegating jobsite safety responsibility to that firm, the owner generally has no legal liability for injury to the employees of the independent contractors – unless the owner asserts some control over the means, methods or procedures of the contractors’ work or takes some action at the project that causes or contributes to an injury.
