Welcome to Israeli Labor Law for Payroll Accountants, part of the brand “Learning Accounting with Victor Fiorri.”
This is a practical, up-to-date, and highly accurate course that brings together everything a payroll professional needs in order to work with confidence in Israel—moving from legal foundations to smart, real-world application on the payslip.
We begin with a clear understanding of how Israeli labor law is built: laws, extension orders, collective agreements, and employment contracts. You’ll learn how to identify the correct legal source behind each employee right, and how to apply it correctly in day-to-day payroll work.
From there we move into essential calculations and payroll rules, including: working hours and overtime, minimum wage, weekly rest and breaks, annual leave, sick pay, convalescence pay (Dmei Havra’ah), and holiday gifts.
A full module is dedicated to employment termination in Israel—including notice periods, the pre-termination hearing process (Shimu’a), severance pay, pension completion requirements, and the key forms and documentation needed to close processes correctly and reduce exposure to risk.
The course includes current Israeli examples, hands-on exercises, work tables, and document templates. In every topic you’ll get practical “rules of thumb” for payslip self-checking, learn to spot common errors, and build organized documentation that protects both the employer and the payroll function.
Toward the end, we practice Ministry of Labor–style exam questions (with full solutions) to strengthen retention and decision-making under real exam conditions.
