Short answer: What you need for an occupational health and safety (OHS) training video is the written text the training is based on: a law, a regulation, a company procedure or an equipment manual. From that text Zıpır makes a narrated, subtitled video whose every scene shows its source line. Zıpır does not decide the content, length or adequacy of the training; that is the responsibility of the employer and the OHS specialist.
Which document do I need for an OHS training video?
Short answer: The written text the training is based on: a law, a regulation, a company procedure or an equipment manual. You upload the document as a PDF, choose a format and approve the scene plan. No new information is made up on screen. There are only the sentences written in the document you uploaded.
That is why the source document has to be correct and current. Which documents make up the content of a training is the decision of the employer and the OHS specialist; Zıpır does not determine it. The example video was made from 6331.pdf (28 pages), and the sentence in every scene is shown with its page and line. Documents such as the company's own instruction or a machine manual turn into a video the same way. The video is made from the document as it was on the day you uploaded it, and Zıpır does not check whether the document is current; for the text of a law, use the official, current version. A document you upload is not used to train models and can be deleted whenever you like.
What does the law say about OHS training?
Short answer: The first paragraph of article 17 of Law 6331 lists training as an obligation of the employer. Zıpır does not interpret legislation, it quotes it; it does not itself determine details such as the length and content of the training and who will give it.
“İşveren, çalışanların iş sağlığı ve güvenliği eğitimlerini almasını sağlar.”
6331.pdf, s. 11, satır 21-22 (madde 17 (1))
In English (our rendering): “The employer ensures that employees receive occupational health and safety training.” Source: 6331.pdf, p. 11, lines 21-22 (article 17 (1)).
A sentence from the same article also appears in the example video:
“Bu madde kapsamında verilecek eğitimin maliyeti çalışanlara yansıtılamaz.”
6331.pdf, s. 12, satır 1
In English (our rendering): “The cost of the training given under this article cannot be passed on to employees.” Source: 6331.pdf, p. 12, line 1.
These two quotes were compared with the official text of Law 6331. For the length and content of the training you can upload the relevant regulation and make a separate video the same way. A law, a regulation and a company instruction are different documents; which one the training is based on is up to you. Zıpır does not look for contradictions between documents and does not decide which one is valid; the OHS specialist makes that assessment. Because every quote can be traced to its page and line, when an inspector asks where a sentence comes from you can point straight to the document.
Does a video made with Zıpır replace OHS training?
Short answer: Zıpır does not decide that. Zıpır is a video-making tool; it gives no legal opinion and does not determine whether a training meets a legal requirement. The video is a narrated material that can be used in a training; whether it meets the legal requirement is the responsibility of the employer and the authorised OHS specialist.
What Zıpır gives is a traceable source: where every sentence on screen comes from, by page and line, is visible, and when the video is done the proof report gives that as a table. This report does not say the training is adequate, it only documents the source of the content in the video. We do not offer a service that approves the training, provides trainers or issues attendance certificates. It is not an advertising video tool, an avatar or talking-head tool, or a stock-video editor either; for now it only makes video.
What do you do, step by step, when you prepare an OHS video?
Short answer: You prepare the text the training is based on as a PDF, upload it to Zıpır, choose a format, check the scene plan with its source lines and approve it, get the video, and show the content to the OHS specialist.
- Decide on the text the training is based on and prepare it as a PDF. The product has twenty-one visual formats: Cartoon, Isometric, 3D cutaway, Paper cut, Whiteboard, Branded workplace, Map story, Illustrated explainer, Clay, Mascot host, Cause and effect, Panel presentation, Chalkboard, Balance, Showcase, Pictogram, Timeline, Brand colors, Document walk-through, Summary presentation and Host-led cartoon. See all of them on the formats page.
- Upload it to Zıpır and choose a format. Zıpır prepares the scene plan; check the scenes and the source line of each. If a quote cannot be found in the source its scene is not made, and a second model also checks every sentence against the source.
- Approve the scene plan; no video is made without approval.
- After you get the video, you can circle a wrong frame and fix only that scene; this edit does not take minutes from your plan.
- Show the content to the OHS specialist; they decide how it will be used in the training.
