Hola. Me gustaría que me den sugerencias de cómo expresarían esto en inglés, que suene bien, es para un contrato (es un contrato donde una persona se compromete a que los trabajadores que van a construir su casa no van a provocar molestias entre los vecinos de los alrededores, así que entre otras cosas se compromete a que los trabajadores van a "evitar orinar y hacer otras necesidades fisiológicas en el área", "evitar uso de vocabulario irrespetuoso", etc.

Gracias.
