Ordered that the order is affirmed, with costs.
The plaintiff was injured when he passed out and fell from a ladder while replacing gutters on the defendants' home. He subsequently commenced this action alleging violations of Labor Law §§ 200, 240 (1), and § 241 (6). Contrary to his contention, the Supreme Court properly granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment dismissing the complaint.
The owner of a one or two-family residence is not subject to liability under Labor Law § 240 (1) and § 241 (6) unless he or she directed or controlled the work being performed ( see, Malloy v. Hanache, 231 A.D.2d 693; Kelly v. Bruno Son, 190 A.D.2d 777). The evidence in this case unequivocally demonstrates that the defendants did not direct or control the repair work and, consequently, they are exempt from liability under Labor Law § 240 (1) and § 241 (6) ( see, Malloy v. Hanache, supra).
When the injuries sustained by a worker result from a dangerous condition at the work site rather than from the manner in which the work is performed, an owner may be liable for a violation of Labor Law § 200 if he or she exercised supervision or control over the work or had actual or constructive notice of the unsafe condition ( see, McGuiness v. Contemporary Interiors, 205 A.D.2d 739; Clayson v. Oldfield, 181 A.D.2d 993). Here, there is no evidence that the defendants supervised the work or had actual or constructive notice of any defective or unsafe condition ( see, Malloy v. Hanache, supra). In fact, there is no evidence of the existence of a defective or unsafe condition.
