(2) Regulations so made may, among other things– (a) prohibit the employment of, or modify or limit the hours of employment of, all persons or any class of persons in connection with any such operation, or (b) prohibit, limit or control the use of any material or process in connection with any such operation, and may impose duties on owners, employers, employed persons and other persons, as well as occupiers.
