Short answer: When you make a training video from legislation, the text of the article has to be told unchanged and every sentence has to show the article, page and line it comes from. Zıpır does not interpret the text of an article, it quotes it: in the video made from Law 6331 on Occupational Health and Safety, 16 of 16 on-screen lines were found in the document.
Why does legislation need extra care?
In the language of laws and regulations a single word changes an obligation: “ensures” and “tries to ensure” are not the same thing. When the text is simplified for a training video, that difference can be lost. That is why in a video made from legislation the sentence on screen should be the text of the article itself, with the narration built around it.
Why does Law 6331 end up an unread text?
Short answer: The law is long, divided into articles and written in legal language; employees do not read it from start to finish, and a gap is left between the person who needs to know it and the text. Zıpır fills the gap with the law's own sentences: you upload the PDF, a narrated video lesson comes out, every sentence on screen is a quote from the law and shows its page and line.
Zıpır does not interpret legislation, it quotes it. This is not a legal opinion; the employer and the OHS specialist decide the content and scope of the training. The example video was made from 6331.pdf (28 pages) in the Summary presentation format and has 8 scenes and a length of 1 minute 13 seconds; it is in Turkish, because the law is. 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. The audience is in-house training, OHS and compliance teams.
Which sentences of the law appear in the video?
Short answer: The law's own sentences, with their page and line. On October 10, 2026, in the live product, 6331.pdf (28 pages) became a video of 8 scenes in the Summary presentation format; each scene has the article and paragraph above it and the page and line below it. Three examples:
The employer's duty to carry out a risk assessment, Law 6331 article 10 (1):
“İşveren, iş sağlığı ve güvenliği yönünden risk değerlendirmesi yapmak veya yaptırmakla yükümlüdür.”
6331.pdf, s. 8, satır 7-8
In English (our rendering): “The employer is obliged to carry out, or have carried out, a risk assessment for occupational health and safety.” Source: 6331.pdf, p. 8, line 7-8.
That obtaining services from outside the workplace does not remove the employer's responsibility, article 4 (2):
“İşyeri dışındaki uzman kişi ve kuruluşlardan hizmet alınması, işverenin sorumluluklarını ortadan kaldırmaz.”
6331.pdf, s. 4, satır 2-3
In English (our rendering): “Obtaining services from experts and organisations outside the workplace does not remove the employer's responsibilities.” Source: 6331.pdf, p. 4, line 2-3.
The cost of the training, article 17:
“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 three quotes were compared with the official text of Law 6331 and came out word for word the same. What you see on screen is the source sentence itself, not a rewritten version, and next to each there is the name of the document, the page and the line. In the scene plan you see which articles go into the video, and you can ask for a scene you do not want to be removed or changed. A scene you do not approve does not go into the video, and no sentence that cannot be found in the source goes in either.
How do I know the quotes match the sentence in the law?
Short answer: There are three checks. The narration is not rewritten, it is taken from the source. A second model searches the source document for every sentence; a quote that cannot be found does not get a scene. You see and approve the scene plan.
In the example video 16 of 16 on-screen lines were found in the document. When the video is done a proof report is also made: it gives a table of which sentence comes from which page and line. When a manager or an auditor asks “where does this sentence come from?”, the answer is ready next to the video. In the panel you can also ask the assistant “where is the source?”; it answers with citations as page and line chips. The last check is still yours: loading the official, current version of the law is the responsibility of the one who uploads the document, and Zıpır does not check whether the document is current.
Step by step
- Download the official text. Get the current PDF of the law or regulation; the line information is given according to this document.
- Upload and choose a format. For a narration that goes article by article, Summary presentation fits; for step-by-step obligations, Clay.
- Compare the scene plan with the text of the article. In every scene the quote, the article and the page and line stand side by side; if a wrong paragraph has been picked, you see it here.
- Approve, and get the video. The source list comes with the video.
The same method for KVKK training
Law 6698 on the Protection of Personal Data, or your organisation's own KVKK policy, can be turned into a video the same way: upload the document, approve the scenes next to the text of the article, and get the video with its source list. We do not yet have a published KVKK example video on the site; the results on this page are from the 6331 video.
When the legislation changes
When a change is published in the Official Gazette the old video becomes wrong; it does not update itself, because the video is made from the document as it was the day you uploaded it. You upload the current text and make the video again. Each sentence is tied again to its line in the new text, and the new video takes minutes from your plan; only a revision, or fixing a frame, does not. The same approach applies to regulations and company procedures.
Limits
- It is not a legal opinion. Zıpır quotes the text and shows its source; it does not interpret how an article is applied. The publisher is responsible for the accuracy of what is published.
- Zıpır does not decide whether a training is adequate. Whether a training meets a legal requirement is the responsibility of the employer and the OHS specialist. Zıpır turns the text into a traceable video by showing its source; it is not a service that approves the training, provides trainers or issues attendance certificates. For details see OHS training video: which documents do you need.
- Use the official text. Uploading the current text from mevzuat.gov.tr as the source makes the line information point to a document everyone can find.

Frequently asked questions
How is a training video made from legislation?

Is the text of the law told unchanged?
Yes. The sentence on screen is the text of the article itself, and the narration is built around it.
How do I know the quotes match the sentence in the law?
Three checks: the narration is not rewritten, it is taken from the source; a second model searches the source for every sentence and a scene that cannot be found is not made; and you approve the scene plan. When the video is done, the proof report gives the page and line of every sentence as a table.
What happens to the video when the law changes?
