Answer:

There is no need for work instruction to contain text of the regulation. It can be even counterproductive because the most of the employees would not even understand what they need to do. The purpose of the work instruction is to ensure that the regulations are followed on the work place, so they need to be clear and simple and explain how activities are preformed according to the regulations.
