Calculating payroll in Israel is a bureaucratic nightmare. Between progressive income tax brackets, Bituach Leumi contributions, health tax, pension fund allocations, and various tax credits, errors are almost inevitable. Payroll mistakes can lead to penalties from the Tax Authority or employee disputes, making manual calculations a constant liability.

Removed a false derivation that framed the 7,703 threshold as 60% of the average wage, and clarified that severance is a 6% mandatory minimum or 8.33% under a full Section 14 arrangement.

Corrected child tax credit points to the accurate per-age table: ages 1-2 = 4.5 points, age 3 = 3.5, ages 4-5 = 2.5, and ages 6-17 = 2 for the mother and 1 for the father. The old flat 1 point per child overstated tax for parents.

Author: skills-ilExplains how a payslip in Israel's public-healthcare system is actually built, which is nothing like private-sector pay. The salary is set by collective agreements and by wage grade (dirug): nurses, three separate allied-health grades (occupational therapy, physiotherapy, and the para-medical grade for dietitians and speech clinicians), pharmacists in the academic grade, and doctors under the IMA agreement. The skill identifies the right grade, reads the combined salary by rank and seniority, adds healthcare-specific supplements like the nurses' tosefet achayot, the banded allied-health training supplement, and doctors' on-call and duty pay valued in workdays, and shows how gross becomes net. Useful for nurses, allied-health workers, doctors, hospital payroll staff, and anyone reading a healthcare payslip. Do NOT use for standard private-sector payroll, teachers' pay, or employing a home caregiver.
Author: skills-ilAI-powered categorization of business expenses into Israeli tax-deductible categories based on current Israeli Tax Ordinance rules. Applies the correct deduction mechanics (vehicle = the higher of running-costs-minus-use-value or 45%, mobile phone with the ~50% disallowance floor, home office and internet proportional), maps to a common Israeli chart of accounts, and handles Osek Patur vs Osek Murshe differences for VAT eligibility (private-car VAT not deductible, running-cost VAT two-thirds). Use when you need to classify business expenses for Israeli tax reporting, prepare expense reports for your accountant, or verify deduction eligibility. Do NOT use for final tax filing, legal tax advice, or payroll-related expense processing.
Author: skills-ilExplains how an Israeli teacher's salary is actually built, which is nothing like private-sector pay. Teacher pay is set by one of two reforms: Ofek Chadash (kindergartens, elementary, and junior-high) or Oz LaTmura (upper-secondary only), and each has its own work-week structure, rank-and-seniority table, and increments (gmulim). The skill identifies the right reform, reads the split between front-of-class hours and private and stay hours, adds gmulim like gmul hishtalmut and gmul chinuch, and shows how gross becomes net. It also covers the split appointment, where a teacher teaches in both a junior-high and a high school and earns under both reforms at once (each part by its position fraction), plus salary unification versus tax coordination. Useful for teachers, kindergarten teachers, school payroll staff, and anyone reading a teacher's payslip. Do NOT use for standard private-sector payroll, bookkeeping entries, or Bagrut and school-system navigation.
