Release of liability

Hello All! 

I'm working with a buddy who buys raw land and builds new construction homes on them. A question popped up today and I wanted to come to you guys about it. I tried looking for a form on BiggerPockets which would state that all subcontractors have been given a safety meeting and with their signature, they were no longer allowed to sue the company if something were to happen. Is there such a thing? If so, where can I find it? If there is another way to make this happen, please let me know. 

Thank you everyone!

Such a form does not exist, and would have no effect whatsoever.  A worker can not waive their rights under workers comp.  Your buddy should know better, he needs to hire only inured subs, and carry his own workers comp policy.  To think you could have workers waive their rights because you "had a safety meeting" is a bit silly.
