Israeli Attendance Wage Checker

Legal notice

This is a free information tool operated by an AI model. It explains the law and computes an indicative figure from the hours you supply. All of its outputs are produced automatically by an AI model, with no involvement, review, or approval by an advocate. The output is not legal advice and not a legal opinion. It is a general explanation and an arithmetic estimate only: it does not read your employment contract, does not know which collective agreement or extension order applies to your workplace, does not check current case law, and does not examine your specific circumstances. An AI model may err, omit data, or present a wrong conclusion.

The binding computation is the one your employer is obliged to make under the law and any applicable collective agreement, and a labour court decides any dispute about it. Any figure this tool produces is a draft for your personal preparation only, it is not a document prepared by an advocate, and it must not be relied on as evidence. This tool is not a substitute for advice that takes account of the particular circumstances and needs of each person, and before filing anything you should consult a licensed advocate. All use of the output is the user's sole responsibility.

Problem

An Israeli payslip shows a number of hours and a number of shekels, and almost nobody can tell whether the second follows from the first. The arithmetic is not intuitive: the premium tiers reset every day rather than accumulating over the month, so a worker can be owed overtime in a week where he worked exactly the standard hours. The statutory week and the week actually used in the economy are different figures, and quoting the wrong one moves every downstream number. Meal breaks come out of the count but some breaks stay in. And the most valuable rule of all is procedural rather than arithmetic: an employer who did not keep the hours ledger the law requires carries the burden of proving the employee did not work the disputed hours, up to a capped number of them. This skill starts from raw clock-in and clock-out entries and produces the reconciliation neither side usually has.

Problem boundary

This skill starts from HOURS and stops at GROSS owed. It does not compute income tax, National Insurance, health tax, pension, or net pay, which is israeli-payroll-calculator. It does not handle severance, notice pay, or end-of-employment settlements, and it does not compute annual leave, recuperation pay, or travel as standalone entitlements, though it flags them where they trigger a statutory presumption. It does not draft a claim or assess its merits. Teacher payroll and foreign-caregiver payroll have their own dedicated skills; do not reimplement them here.

Instructions
