51.-(1) There shall be provided and maintained for the use of employed persons adequate and suitable facilities for washing which shall include soap and clean towels or other suitable means of cleaning or drying and the facilities shall be conveniently accessible and shall be kept in a clean and orderly condition.
(2) If the Chief Inspector so directs, a supply of hot water shall be provided.
(3) The Chief Inspector may, by certificate in writing, except from any of the requirements of subsection (1) any factory where, by reason of the difficulty of obtaining an adequate supply of water, or of the fact that accommodation is restricted and adequate and suitable washing facilities are otherwise conveniently available, or by reason of such other special circumstances as may be specified in the certificate, the application of the requirement would in his opinion be unreasonable.
(4) The Υπουργικόν Συμβούλιον may by regulations prescribe, either generally or as respects any class or description of factory or as respects the person employed in any process a standard of adequate and suitable washing facilities.
