Such protection should be assured by the application of Council Directive 89/391/EEC of 12 June 1989 on the introduction of measures to encourage improvements in the safety and health of workers at workOJ L 183, 29.6.1989, p. 1., as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1882/2003 of the European Parliament and of the CouncilOJ L 284, 31.10.2003, p. 1..(16)The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Standing Committee on the Food Chain and Animal Health,HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
