NY Emp Liab L § 3 (2021)
2021 New York Laws EML - Employers' Liability Article 2 - Employers' Liability. 3 - Notice to Be Served.

§  3.  Notice to be served. No action for recovery of compensation for   injury or death under this article shall be maintained unless notice  of   the  time, place and cause of the injury is given to the employer within   one hundred and twenty days and the action is commenced within one  year   after  the  occurrence  of the accident causing the injury or death. The   notice required by this section shall be in writing and  signed  by  the   person  injured  or  by  some one in his behalf, but if from physical or   mental incapacity it is impossible for the person injured to give notice   within the time provided in this section, he may give  the  same  within   ten  days after such incapacity is removed. In case of his death without   having given such notice, his executor or administrator  may  give  such   notice  within sixty days after his appointment, but no notice under the   provisions of this section shall be deemed to be invalid or insufficient   solely by reason of any inaccuracy in stating the time, place  or  cause   of  the injury if it be shown that there was no intention to mislead and   that the party entitled to notice was not in  fact  misled  thereby.  If   such notice does not apprise the employer of the time, place or cause of   injury,  he may, within eight days after service thereof, serve upon the   sender a written demand for a further notice, which demand must  specify   the particular in which the first notice is claimed to be defective, and   a  failure  by the employer to make such demand as herein provided shall   be a waiver of all defects that the notice may contain. After service of   such demand as herein provided, the sender of such notice may at anytime   within eight  days  thereafter  serve  an  amended  notice  which  shall   supersede  such  first  notice  and  have the same effect as an original   notice hereunder. The notice required by this section shall be served on   the employer, or if there is more than one employer, upon  one  of  such   employers,  and  may  be  served  by  delivering  the  same to or at the   residence or place of business of the person on whom it is to be served.   The notice or demand may be served by post by letter  addressed  to  the   person  on whom it is to be served, at his last known place of residence   or place of business, and if served by post shall be deemed to have been   served at the  time  when  the  letter  containing  the  same  would  be   delivered  in  the  ordinary  course of the post. When the employer is a   corporation, notice shall be served by delivering the same or by sending   it by post addressed to the office or principal  place  of  business  of   such corporation.

§  4. Assumption of risks; contributory negligence, when a question of   fact. An employee by entering upon or continuing in the service  of  the   employer  shall  be  presumed to have assented to the necessary risks of   the occupation or employment and no others. The necessary risks  of  the   occupation or employment shall, in all cases arising after the first day   of September, nineteen hundred and ten, be considered as including those   risks,  and  those  only,  inherent  in the nature of the business which   remain after the employer has exercised due care in  providing  for  the   safety  of  his  employees,  and has complied with the laws affecting or   regulating such business or occupation for the greater  safety  of  such   employees. In an action brought to recover damages for personal injuries   or  for  death  resulting  therefrom  received  after  the  first day of   September, nineteen hundred and ten, owing to any cause, including  open   and  visible defects, for which the employer would be liable but for the   hitherto available defense of assumption of risks by the  employee,  the   fact  that  the employee continued in the service of the employer in the   same place  and  course  of  employment  after  the  discovery  by  such   employee, or after he had been informed of the danger of personal injury   therefrom,  shall  not  be,  as  matter  of fact or as matter of law, an   assumption of the risk of injury therefrom,  but  an  employee,  or  his   legal  representative,  shall  not be entitled under this article to any   right of compensation or remedy against the employer in any  case  where   such  employee  knew of the defect or negligence which caused the injury   and failed, within a reasonable time, to give, or  cause  to  be  given,   information  thereof  to  the  employer,  or  to some person superior to   himself in the service of the employer, or who had intrusted to him some   superintendence, unless it shall appear on the trial that such defect or   negligence was known to such employer, or superior person, prior to such   injuries to  the  employee;  or  unless  such  defect  could  have  been   discovered  by  such  employer  by  reasonable and proper care, tests or   inspection.

On the trial of any action brought by an   employee  or  his  personal  representative  to  recover   damages   for   negligence  arising  out  of  and  in  the  course  of  such employment,   contributory negligence of the injured employee shall be a defense to be   so pleaded and proved by the defendant.

Every right of action   existing on the seventeenth day of February, nineteen hundred and  nine,   for  negligence or to recover damages for injuries resulting in death is   continued and nothing in this article contained shall  be  construed  as   limiting  any  such  right  of action, nor shall the failure to give the   notice provided for in section three of this article be  a  bar  to  the   maintenance of a suit upon any such existing right of action.
NY Emp Liab L § 8 (2021)
2021 New York Laws EML - Employers' Liability Article 2 - Employers' Liability. 8 - Consent by Employer and Employee to Compensation Plan.

§  8.  Consent by employer and employee to compensation plan. When and   if any employer in this state and any of his employees shall consent  to   the  compensation plan described in sections nine to fifteen, inclusive,   of this article, hereinafter referred to as the plan, and shall  signify   their  consent  thereto  in  writing,  signed  by  each of them or their   authorized agents, and acknowledged in the manner prescribed by law  for   taking  the  acknowledgment  of  a conveyance of real property, and such   writing is filed with the county clerk of the  county  in  which  it  is   signed  by the employee, then so long as such consent has not expired or   been canceled as hereinafter provided, such employee, or in case  injury   to  him  results  in death, his executor or administrator, shall have no   other right of action against the employer for personal injury or  death   of  any kind, under any statute or at common law, save under the plan so   consented to, except where personal injury to the employee is caused  in   whole  or  in  part by the failure of the employer to obey a valid order   made by the industrial commission or other public  authority  authorized   to require the employer to safeguard his employees, or where such injury   is  caused by the serious or willful misconduct of the employer. In such   excepted cases thus described, no right of action which the employee has   at common law or by any other statute shall be affected or lost  by  his   consent  to the plan, if such employee, or in case of death his executor   or administrator, commences such action  before  accepting  any  benefit   under  such  plan  or giving any notice of injury as provided in section   nine hereof. The commencing of any legal action whatsoever at common law   or by any statute against the employer on account of such injury, except   under the plan, shall bar the employee, and in the event  of  his  death   his  executors, administrators, dependents and other beneficiaries, from   all benefit under the plan. This section and sections nine  to  fifteen,   inclusive,  of  this  article shall not apply to a railroad corporation,   foreign or domestic,  doing  business  in  this  state,  or  a  receiver   thereof, or to any person employed by such corporation or receiver.
NY Emp Liab L § 9 (2021)
2021 New York Laws EML - Employers' Liability Article 2 - Employers' Liability. 9 - Liability to Pay Compensation; Notice of Accident.

§  9.  Liability  to pay compensation; notice of accident. If personal   injury by accident arising out of and in the course of the employment is   caused to the employee,  the  employer  shall,  subject  as  hereinafter   mentioned, be liable to pay compensation under the plan at the rates set   out in section ten of this article: provided that the employer shall not   be  liable  in respect of any injury which does not disable the employee   for a period of at least two weeks from earning full wages at  the  work   at  which  he was employed, and that the employer shall not be liable in   respect of any injury to the employee which is caused by the serious and   willful misconduct of that employee. No proceedings for  recovery  under   the  plan  provided  hereby  shall  be  maintained  unless notice of the   accident has been given to the employer as soon as practicable after the   happening thereof and before  the  employee  has  voluntarily  left  the   employment  in  which  he  was  injured  and during such disability, and   unless claim for compensation with respect to the accident has been made   within six months from the occurrence of the accident, or in the case of   death of the employee, or  in  the  event  of  his  physical  or  mental   incapacity  within  six  months  after  such  death  or  removal of such   physical or mental incapacity, or in event  that  weekly  payments  have   been  made  under  the  plan, within six months after such payments have   ceased; but no want of or defect or inaccuracy of a notice  shall  be  a   bar to the maintenance of proceedings under the plan unless the employer   proves  that he is prejudiced by said want, defect or inaccuracy. Notice   of the accident shall apprise the employer of the claim for compensation   under this plan and shall state the name and  address  of  the  employee   injured,  the  date and place of the accident and in simple language the   cause thereof. The notice may be served personally or by sending  it  by   mail  in a registered letter addressed to the employer at his last known   residence or place of business.

§  11.  Settlement of disputes. Any question of law or fact arising in   regard to the application of the plan in  determining  the  compensation   payable  thereunder or otherwise shall be determined either by agreement   or by arbitration, or by an action at law as herein  provided.  In  case   the  employer  shall  be  in  default  in  any of his obligations to the   employee  under  the  plan,  the  injured  employee  or  his  committee,   conservator  or  guardian,  if  such  be  appointed,  or his executor or   administrator, may then bring an action to  recover  compensation  under   the  plan  in  any  court  having  jurisdiction  thereof as on a written   contract. Such action shall be conducted in the same manner as an action   at law for the recovery of damages for breach of a written contract, and   shall for all purposes, including the determination of jurisdiction,  be   deemed  such  an  action.  The  judgment in such action, in favor of the   plaintiff, shall be for a lump sum equal to the amount of  the  payments   then  due  and  prospectively  due  under the plan. In such action by an   executor or administrator the judgment may provide  the  proportions  of   the  award  or  the  costs  to  be distributed to or between the several   dependents. If such determination is not made it shall be determined  by   the  surrogate's  court  by  which  such  executor  or  administrator is   appointed, in accordance with the terms of this article on  petition  of   any party on such notice as such court may direct.

Weekly payments due under the plan shall not be assignable or subject to   attachment,  levy  or  execution.  No  claim  of  an  attorney  for  any   contingent interest in any recovery  under  the  plan  for  services  in   securing  such recovery shall be an enforceable lien thereon, unless the   amount of the same be approved in writing by a justice  of  the  supreme   court,  or  in  case  the same is tried in any court, before the justice   presiding at such trial.
