Depends. Define "hired hand".
What type of injury and how where they injured?

Perhaps. I would suggest that the property owner turn this over to their insurance.

What medical bills? What do you mean by "wage compensation"? What was this person hired to do? What happened that gives rise to your question?

are liability waivers valid under NYS law?

They can be, but facts and circumstances matter, and you've provided none.

Any time somebody says to you: "I'm hurt, your fault, pay me" that's the exact moment you shut your mouth and call your insurance company.
