The Federal Regulation for
Occupational Health, Safety and environment (RFSHMAT)
El Reglamento Federal de Seguridad, Higiene y Medio Ambiente de
Trabajo
This Regulation is the most
important of the 3 Regulations of the Federal Law See:
Index of the RFSHMAT
The Regulation of the Labor Law
focuses on Health and Safety. It specifies the training of
employees, Health and Safety Documentation that is required in the
workplace, and a description and format for the required Health and
Safety Manual in the work place. A Mexican Health and Safety
Program is based on the outline of this Regulation. A Health and
Safety audit performed by the STPS follows very closely the outline
of this Regulation.
The Regulation is a general
framework for Health and Safety. The NOMs, Official Mexican
Standards, detail each one of the sections of the Regulation, such
as noise, fire prevention, vibrations, etc. The NOMs are comparable
to OSHA standards. If you want to understand the basics of how
Health and Safety programs are set up, the Regulation is important,
but if you need to bring your facility into Health and Safety
compliance, then you should consider our Health and Safety package
(over 800 pages of workplace standards).
*If you need specific details about
Health and Safety Standards, such as how many fire extinguishers are
required in your facility, you will find this detailed information
in the NOMs (Official Mexican Standards), Each section in the
Regulation is detailed in a NOM, the Regulation outlines the
framework for Health and Safety, but for compliance details, you
need the NOMs. (STPS)
