Would you describe that as worker self-management, perchance?
By the way, throughout history, almost all farmland was rented or owned by absent landlords. Even today 40-50% of farmland in the US and Europe is rented, and a majority of the remainder is part-owner operated. It was and still is much worse in the Third World.
These are hardly (on average) the sort of people that are acquainted with farm life or care much about health and safety rules, though their capacity for whining and demanding handouts and loans is more than evident...
