Did a robot kill a worker, or did someone improperly bypass a safety system and get themselves killed? If it has the name "robot" the human interactions should be limited and strictly defined.

Robots don’t kill people, people kill people.

Also you forgot the more likely scenario of, someone in charge made someone below them do something unsafe and got them killed.

Gotta cut those corners to maximize value for the shareholders! Employee death is just the cost of doing business.
