Full compliance with applicable occupational health and safety legislation, automatic updates and an alert system.
- The legislation itself is on recordA law, regulation, communiqué or circular is not held by its title alone but article by article. The Official Gazette date and number, the effective date, the repeal date where there is one, and the source address all sit on the record.
- Article, standard and fine are linkedThe standard an article refers to and the administrative fine attached to that article live in the tabs of the same record; you do not go to a separate table to read the amount.
- The legal data behind the module is already openThe administrative fine tables, the statutory inspection periods for work equipment and the NACE hazard classes are published free on this site; the module is built on the same sets.
Legislation Management
Manage laws, regulations, directives and other legislation
- Legislation TypeLaw, bylaw, regulation, communiqué, circular, decree and international convention sit in one list; the type field is the first axis you filter on.
- StatusDraft, pending, active, amended and repealed are marked separately. Repealed legislation is not deleted; in a retrospective audit the record still says which text was in force.
- Publication DetailsThe Official Gazette date and number, the effective date and the repeal date where there is one are collected in a single block; when a provision became binding follows from those dates.
- JurisdictionThe record states the level at which it binds: national, state, regional, municipal or international. Two texts covering the same subject are told apart by this field.
- Source InformationThe Mevzuat.gov.tr number and the source address are written onto the record and annexes link to the source document. The text is not relayed second hand; what binds is the text as published.
- AI SummaryA short summary of a long text is kept in its own field on the record and feeds search. The summary does not replace the text; what you read is the legislation in force.
The body of the legislation: the article tree
The text is not held as one file but as ordered, nested nodes. Each node has its own number, title, order and content, which is why a reference, a fine or a standard can attach to a single article rather than to the whole text.
- PARTThe topmost division of the text; it carries the chapters and sections beneath it.
- CHAPTERA chapter heading; it groups the sections and articles under it.
- SECTIONA section; it holds related articles together.
- ARTICLEThe article; the node that fine, standard and reference links actually attach to.
- PARAGRAPHA paragraph; the numbered sub-provision of an article.
- SUBPARAGRAPHA subparagraph; the sub-provision separated by a letter or a figure.
- ITEMAn item; a single obligation enumerated under a subparagraph.
- ANNEXAn annex; its own node for table, list and form annexes.
- TRANSITIONALA transitional article; provisions that run on their own timetable.
The tabs of a legislation record
When a record opens, everything attached to the text sits on the same screen. An empty tab is not passed over in silence; where there is no related record the screen says so.
Annexes
The annexes of the legislation are attached to the record and lead to the source document; where there is no annex the list says so.
Penalties
The administrative fines attached to the article: penalty article, the wording of the violation and the amount for the year.
Standards
The standards the article refers to; the type of the reference and its note sit on the record.
Quick Reference
A quick reference card: the field-readable summary of a long provision, attached to the article itself.
Standards
Manage legal and technical standards
Basic Info
Standard code, title, the English and original-language titles, and the body that published it.
Details
ICS code and name, publication year, last revision year, scope and the countries it covers.
Content
The body of the standard is held as a tree too: scope, normative references, terms and definitions, requirement, clause, sub-clause, annex, table, figure and note.
Legislation Relations
The legislation records that refer to the standard, with the type of the reference and its note, visible from both sides.
Version History
Version history: version code, publication date, status and change note.
AI / Metadata
Summary, keyword and related-module fields; they feed search and the matching between modules.
- Standard BodyThe publishing body is a field of its own, so versions of the same subject from different bodies never get mixed up.
- ICS CodeThe international classification code for standards; filtering and matching by subject run on it.
- Mandatory StandardWhether the standard is mandatory, and in which countries it counts as mandatory, is marked on the record.
- Current VersionThe version in force appears at the head of the record; earlier versions are not deleted, they stay in the version history.
- Free AccessWhether the text is freely accessible and where it can be purchased sits on the record. A copyrighted standard text is not copied; the record links to its source.
Administrative fine tables
The penalty side of the module does not run on a sample table but on the tables published by the Ministry of Labour and Social Security. The set we hold today covers six laws: the 41 items in the 2026 table for Law No. 6331 and the 65 items in the 2026 tables of the other five laws. The 2026 amounts follow the 25.49 per cent revaluation rate.
- Law No. 6331 on Occupational Health and SafetyThe 2026 table holds 41 items under 21 penalty articles. Thirty-eight of them carry nine separate amounts, by workplace size (under 10, 10-49, 50 and over) and hazard class; some are applied per employee or repeat each month for as long as the breach continues.
- Labour Law No. 485733 items. Amounts are stored separately for 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026, so the figure that applied on a past date can also be read.
- Maritime Labour Law No. 8549 items. Fines tied to written contracts with seafarers, severance pay, the duty to repatriate and the payment of wages.
- Press Labour Law No. 59536 items. Fines tied to failing to make a written contract with a journalist, to compensation and to paying wages late.
- Law No. 6356 on Trade Unions and Collective Labour Agreements13 items. Fines tied to the provisions on founding and membership and to strike and lockout carried out contrary to the law.
- International Labour Force Law No. 67354 items. Fines tied to employing a foreign national without a work permit, to working without one and to missing the notification deadline.
Where a cell holds three figures they are, in order, the amounts for less hazardous / hazardous / highly hazardous workplaces. Shown for information.
The amounts were taken row by row from the Ministry's 2026 tables; what binds is the Ministry's own publication. When the new table is published at the turn of the year the set is refreshed, and the previous year's figures are not deleted.
How penalty records are managed
The screen lists the laws first, then drills into the items of the law you pick. Whether a law carries the hazard class and employee range matrix is stated on the law row.
- The list of lawsEach law is listed with its code, its name and the number of items it holds; whether it carries a matrix is marked on the row.
- Choosing the yearAmounts depend on the year. Change the year and the same item is read with that year's amount; the list of items is not rewritten.
- The list of itemsLaw article, penalty article, the wording of the violation and the amount for the selected year appear on one row.
- Item detailOpen an item and the full wording of the violation, the amount for the selected year and the flags the item carries are shown together.
- Multiplier flagsItems applied per employee and items that repeat monthly while the breach continues are marked separately; the result of the calculation follows those flags.
- Link to the public tableThe same data set is also published as a free table on this site; the screen links straight to it rather than keeping a second copy.
Where a law publishes a matrix, the amount is read from the cell where workplace size meets hazard class; where it does not, the base amount applies. Items marked per employee are multiplied by the employee count.
The two axes of the fine matrix: workplace size and hazard class
Which cell the amount is read from is set by the employee count of the workplace and its hazard class. The hazard class comes from the NACE activity code of the workplace; the annex list we hold carries 2,142 activity codes.
- Less hazardous898 activity codes in the list fall in this class.
- Hazardous888 activity codes in the list fall in this class.
- Highly hazardous356 activity codes in the list fall in this class; the highest amounts of the matrix are read from this column.
Activity names are given in Turkish, as published: the binding text is Türkiye's official workplace hazard class list (İşyeri Tehlike Sınıfları Tebliği). Shown for information.

Legal basis
The table shows the obligations of the legislation region you pick in the top bar; it refreshes without reloading the page when the region changes.
Legal basis — Türkiye
| Obligation | Legal basis | How the module covers it |
|---|---|---|
| Adapt the measures taken to changing conditions and improve the existing situation | Law no. 6331 on Occupational Health and Safety, art. 4(1)(a) — the employer takes every measure including the prevention of occupational risks and the provision of training and information, adapts health and safety measures to changing conditions and works to improve the existing situation. | Laws, regulations, communiqués and circulars are kept article by article rather than by title alone; the Official Gazette date and number, the entry into force date and, where applicable, the repeal date sit in the same record. |
| Monitor and audit compliance with the measures and have non-conformities removed | Law no. 6331, art. 4(1)(b) — the employer monitors and audits whether the occupational health and safety measures taken at the workplace are complied with and ensures that non-conformities are removed. | The standard an article refers to and the administrative fine attached to that article sit on the tabs of the same record; draft, in force, amended and repealed states are marked separately. |
| Renew the risk assessment when the legislation on limit values changes | Regulation on Occupational Health and Safety Risk Assessment, art. 12(2)(d) — where the legislation on the limit values of the working environment changes, the risk assessment is renewed in whole or in part. | Repealed legislation is not deleted; when its status changes the control topics attached to it are marked as well and the record stays readable for the past. |
| Update the annual training programme when the legislation changes | Regulation on the Procedures and Principles of Occupational Health and Safety Training of Workers, art. 11(3) — annual training programmes are updated when the relevant legislation changes, when new risks arise from changing conditions or when new workers are hired. | Because a legislation record is linked to training and control topics, a change appears in the list of the module it belongs to. |
These rows are for Turkish legislation and the basis of every row was read from the downloaded source text. Administrative fine amounts change every year with the revaluation rate, so they are not kept in this table; the current amounts are published in the free penalty tables on this site.
Legal basis — European Union
| Obligation | Legal basis | How the module covers it |
|---|---|---|
| Take the steps needed to make employers, workers and workers' representatives subject to the legal provisions required to implement the Directive, and ensure adequate controls and supervision — the same duty is read from a different national text in every Member State | Framework Directive 89/391/EEC, Article 4(1)-(2) | The jurisdiction field states at which level the record binds: national, state, regional, municipal or international. Two texts governing the same subject are separated by this field. |
| The provisions of the Framework Directive apply in full to all the areas covered by the individual directives, without prejudice to more stringent or more specific provisions | Framework Directive 89/391/EEC, Articles 16(1) and 16(3) with the list of areas in the Annex | Acts, statutes, regulations, communiqués, circulars, decrees and international conventions sit in the same list; the type field is the first axis of filtering and separates the general text from the specific one. |
| Bring into force the laws and regulations necessary to comply with the Directive by the stated date and communicate the texts of the national provisions adopted to the Commission | Framework Directive 89/391/EEC, Article 18(1)-(2) | The publication section gathers the official gazette date and number, the entry-into-force date and, where applicable, the repeal date; the moment a provision becomes binding is derived from those dates. Repealed legislation is not deleted, so a retrospective audit can read which text was in force. |
| Individual directives are adjusted to take account of the adoption of directives in the field of technical harmonisation and standardisation and of technical progress — the legal text and the standard it refers to are tracked together | Framework Directive 89/391/EEC, Article 17(1) | The standards a provision refers to are shown in both directions together with the type of reference and its note; the version history of the standard, its current version and the countries where it is mandatory stay in its own record. |
An EU directive does not bind a workplace directly: it applies through transposition into the national law of the Member State. A legal-tracking record therefore holds the directive and the transposing national text as separate records. Article numbers are read from the downloaded directive text.
Legal basis — United Kingdom
| Obligation | Legal basis | How the module covers it |
|---|---|---|
| The employer must prepare, and revise as often as may be appropriate, a written statement of general policy on health and safety and of the organisation and arrangements in force for carrying it out, and bring it to the notice of all employees. | Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 (c. 37), s. 2(3) | Draft, pending, in force, amended and repealed states are marked separately; publication date, entry-into-force date and any repeal date are gathered in a single section. |
| It is an offence to fail to discharge a duty under sections 2 to 7 and to contravene any health and safety regulations or any requirement or prohibition imposed under them. | Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974 (c. 37), s. 33(1)(a) and 33(1)(c) | The standard a provision refers to and the penalty attached to that provision sit in the tabs of the same record; no separate table has to be opened to read the amount. |
| The employer must make arrangements for the planning, organisation, control, monitoring and review of the preventive and protective measures, and record them where five or more employees are employed. | Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/3242), reg. 5(1)-(2) | When a record is opened, everything attached to the text sits on the same screen: annexes, penalties, standards and the quick-reference card. An empty tab is not passed over silently. |
| The assessment must be reviewed where there is reason to suspect that it is no longer valid or there has been a significant change in the matters to which it relates — a change in the law being one such reason. | Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/3242), reg. 3(3) | Repealed legislation is not deleted; in a retrospective audit the record shows which text was in force at the time. |
In the United Kingdom the duty sits in the regulation to be complied with and in the general provisions of the 1974 Act. A breach is an offence carrying a court-imposed penalty under section 33.
Legal basis — United States
| Obligation | Legal basis | How the module covers it |
|---|---|---|
| Comply with the occupational safety and health standards promulgated under the Act | 29 U.S.C. 654(a)(2) — OSH Act 1970, sec. 5(a)(2): each employer shall comply with occupational safety and health standards promulgated under this chapter; 654(b) places the same duty on each employee for their own conduct | Acts, by-laws, regulations, communiqués, circulars, decrees and international conventions sit in the same list; the type field is the first axis for filtering and the text is held article by article. |
| Track the standards of an approved State plan alongside the federal standard | 29 U.S.C. 667(a) — State jurisdiction is preserved where no federal standard is in effect; 667(b) — a State wishing to supersede the federal standard submits a plan; 667(c)(2) — an approved plan must be at least as effective as the federal standard on the same issue | The record states the level at which it binds: national, state, regional, municipal or international. Two texts regulating the same subject are separated by this field. |
| Track the current cap of the civil monetary penalty | 29 CFR 1903.15(d) — penalties proposed after 15 January 2025: a willful violation shall not be less than $11,823 and not exceed $165,514 (d)(1); a repeated violation not more than $165,514 (d)(2); serious and other-than-serious violations not more than $16,550 (d)(3)-(4); failure to correct not more than $16,550 per day (d)(5) | Administrative fines attached to an article sit in a tab of the same record with the penalty article, the definition of the breach and the amount per year; no separate table has to be opened to read the amount. |
| Post the notice of protections and obligations under the Act and keep the text available to employees | 29 CFR 1903.2(a)(1) — each employer shall post and keep posted a notice informing employees of the protections and obligations provided by the Act; (a)(2) — where a State has an approved poster, posting it constitutes compliance; (c) — an employer that has obtained copies of the Act and standards shall make them available to any employee on request | The official register number and the source address are written on the record and annexes link to the source document; the text is never carried over second-hand, what binds is the published version. The quick reference card keeps a field-readable summary of a long provision attached to the article itself. |
| Track the technical standard a rule refers to, together with the edition the reference points at | 29 CFR 1910.6(a)(1) — certain material is incorporated by reference into this part with the approval of the Director of the Federal Register; to enforce any edition other than the one specified, OSHA must publish a document in the Federal Register and the material must be available to the public; (a)(2)-(a)(3) — the material is available for inspection at OSHA and NARA and may be obtained from the listed sources | Legislation records that cite a standard are shown in both directions with the citation type and note; the current version sits at the head of the record while older versions stay in the version history. Copyrighted standard text is not copied; the record links to its source. |
| Separate breaches by class and track the statutory amount alongside the current adjusted amount | 29 U.S.C. 666(a) — a willful or repeated violation may be assessed a civil penalty of not more than $70,000 per violation, but not less than $5,000 for each willful violation; 666(b) a serious violation up to $7,000 per violation; 666(c) a violation determined not to be serious up to $7,000; 666(d) failure to correct within the permitted period up to $7,000 for each day it continues. These statutory figures are applied through the adjusted caps in 29 CFR 1903.15(d). | The year selector binds amounts to a year: changing the year reads that year's amount for the same item without rewriting the item list, and the previous year's amount is not deleted. The item detail shows the full text of the breach, the amount for the selected year and the flags the item carries. |
Legal tracking in the United States has two layers: federal OSHA standards and the standards of approved State plans (29 U.S.C. 667). For that reason the jurisdiction field of a record cannot be left empty here. In the federal system the official gazette is the Federal Register, and the technical standards that OSHA standards rely on are incorporated by reference (29 CFR 1910.6). The penalty side of the module runs on Ministry tables for Türkiye; in the United States the caps are in 29 CFR 1903.15(d) and are adjusted for inflation.
