Article 6.5 - To ensure safe and healthful working conditions for both Resident and Nonresident Workers in the Republic, Employers shall furnish and use personal and other safety devices to safeguard against and prevent injuries and illnesses arising out of the work environment. Employers shall adopt reasonable and adequate health and safety rules and sha ll require their employees to comply with such rules for the benefit of both Employers and employees.
