NY A10728

Creates "Carlos' law" establishing three new workplace safety crimes: endangering the welfare of a worker in the third degree (Class A misdemeanor), second degree (Class E felony for causing serious physical injury), and first degree (Class D felony for causing death).

Defines employers and supervisory personnel as criminally liable when acting with criminal negligence and exposing workers to risk of physical injury at workplaces subject to federal, state, or local safety standards.

Increases criminal fines for workplace safety violations to up to $500,000 for felony convictions under the new sections and up to $300,000 for Class A misdemeanor convictions under section 122.05.

Allows courts to order restitution or reparation exceeding standard amounts when employers or supervisors are convicted of endangering worker welfare in the first or second degree.

Makes corporations criminally liable for workplace safety offenses committed by agents acting within the scope of employment, effective thirty days after enactment.
