Israeli Teacher Payroll
Trusted86/100Explains 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.

Israeli teachers are not paid like private-sector employees. Their pay is set by two collective-agreement reforms, Ofek Chadash and Oz LaTmura, each with its own work-week structure, its own 9-rank salary table, and its own rules for increments (gmulim). This skill encodes the Israel-specific structure so an agent can explain a teacher's payslip, estimate gross from the right table, and route the deduction step correctly.

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.
