In Kuntz v. Del E. Webb Constr. Co. (1961) 57 Cal.2d 100, the plaintiff was injured on a construction site when he fell. The Supreme Court reversed the verdict for plaintiff because of the trial court's reliance on Labor Code section 6400 as the basis for a negligence per se instruction. It held that Labor Code section 6400 "should not be construed as meaning that, where a general contractor or owner of premises does nothing more with respect to the work done by an independent contractor than exercise general supervision and control to bring about its satisfactory completion, it is his responsibility to assure compliance with all applicable safety provisions of the code and regulations issued thereunder . . . ."
