OSH Standards
The OSHS is a set of mandatory standards which codifies all safety orders being enforced
prior to its declaration. It contains administrative requirements, general safety and health rules,
technical safety regulations, and other measures to eliminate or reduce OSH hazards in the
workplace. Its purpose is to protect every working man against the dangers of injury, sickness or
death through safe and healthful working conditions. Its scope applies to all places of
employment except land, sea and air transportation and safety in mines.
