I am not exactly sure what to make of "Rechtsverordnung zu(m)" in the following sentences:
Da die neue ArbStättV eine Rechtsverordnung zum ArbSchG ist, ....
or
...gilt die neue ArbStättV als Rechtsverordnung zu § 18 ArbSchG ....
It sounds like there must be a very specific term for it in English, but I am getting so many general options in my dictionaries that I don't know which direction to go in.

a set of regulations that supplement a law
These are usually administrative regulations that are set by an administrative body. These regulations supplement the law in that they provide details for enforcement that the law does not have.

ordinance/regulation on
Dietl/Lorenz:
Rechtsverordnung ordinance (having the force of law) issued by the Federal Government, a Federal Minister or the Land Governments); regulation; Br statutory instrument; Am rule
I wouldn't use "directive" because in legal documents Directives are usually understood as "EU-Richtlinien".
