Self-regulation can work for safety but only if the measures needed to make things safer are cheap and pretty much don't require quality control (e.g. do not install a slippery type of floor in front of your butcher counter) and the consequences are severe even without regulation (bad press, significantly fewer customers, medical bills to pay for the customer who does slip,...).
