Marlene Shores, whose husband Ronnie was killed by a falling boulder last year, says the laws will intimidate workers from speaking up about safety.
"My husband died when shortcuts were taken in the rush to complete the job, and no one was brave enough to speak out," Shores said.
"But these laws will make matters worse. This new law will be used to fine workers $22,000 for having a meeting about safety, refusing to work in unsafe areas, or stopping to morn a killed mate."
